Seventy-two people have filed their paperwork and are officially running for office in the upcoming Birmingham city elections.

After the qualifying deadline elapsed Friday, eight people were on the ballot to compete in the mayor’s race, trying to capture the seat now held by Mayor Randall Woodfin.

The other most populated race is for Birmingham City Council District 8, where eight people also have qualified to run for the seat being vacated by Councilor Steven Hoyt.

The election will be held Aug. 24, and voters have until Aug. 9 to register to vote.

On the ballot will be the mayor’s race, nine City Council races and nine Birmingham Board of Education races.
