    Halfling Representative - Speaks for the interests of the Hin Community of Hinhold

    Candidates:
    Sadie Brockhouse: Current head of the Hinhold Labor Union, Sadie and her family have always been strong advocates for the working hin, going all the way back to their time in Peltarch's Halfling Labor Union, and later as undersecretaries for the Peltarch Docks Union.

    Gnome Representative - Speaks for the interests of the Gnomish community of Hinhold

    Candidates:
    Jorvin Fendiggle: Talented arcanist and gnome-about-town Jorvin Fendiggle is campaigning on a platform of reaching out to gnomes' hinnish neighbors by giving their beloved dogs the right to vote.

    Floki Tilnook: The youngest child of Feldegast Tilnook, Floki wants to see programs instituted to ensure that gnomes have a fair shake at jobs throughout town despite hin being in the overwhelming majority. His other policies include pushing for more equal representation of his people on Hinhold's town council, to counterbalance the overwhelming influence many presume that halflings will have on the town's government.

    Candidates:
    Hafur Bruntaingo: Dwarven veteran, lost an arm in the fall of Aura Runedar. A fierce advocate for Hinhold assisting his people in rebuilding their home as the hin have done, he wishes to see aid funds diverted to dwarven attempts to reclaim it.
