WILKES-BARRE — Three incumbent city council members will seek re-election in 2023 and two have said they will not run. When the dust settles in November, council will have two new members — or more, depending on the will of the voters. Council members Beth Gilbert McBride (District C) and John Marconi (District E) have announced that they will not seek re-election to council. McBride is employed as acting director at the Luzerne County Election Bureau. Mayor George Brown has also stated he will seek a second term to lead the city.
