... that, when questioned, Councilman John Bruning told the Pachyderm Club that he is a Democrat. But council candidate Amber Copeland refused to state which party she belonged to. In the comments section, Amber writes: "What I said was that city council is a nonpartisan race and that I choose not to participate in making it a partisan race by dislosing what party I am. I stated that it was public record and anyone who was that interested was always welcome to get the information."
