Incumbents Mark Bubba Abbott and Rondale Brishaber have filed to seek re-election while Todd Armstrong, Brad Gilbert and Andrew Davisson have filed to get a nomination for the Council.
Max J. Greene has filed and is certified to run in the 2024 General Election, as a Libertarian, for the office of Washington County Surveyor.
