Adrian Dominguez, an epidemiologist with the Spokane Regional Health District and member of Spokane's Police Ombudsman Commission, might be a candidate for City Council this year. 

If so, he would run in District 3 for the seat currently occupied by Councilwoman Karen Stratton, who was chosen by council members to fill the vacancy left by Steve Salvatori when he resigned and moved to Texas for work. Dominguez was one of five finalists to succeed Salvatori, along with Stratton.

Today, Dominguez said he was "really weighing the pros and cons" of a run. 

"Several people have come to me and expressed support and interest in me doing this," he said. "I am definitely considering it."

He said he didn't have a problem with Stratton's performance on the council, and noted that she is "voting in line with my stance on the issues." Still, Dominguez is interested in public office.

He said he would likely make a decision in the next month.
