There are now three people running for Mayor in Essex.
A newcomer to politics, Katie McGuire-Blais, 35, says it's time for some new ideas and fresh eyes to look at the town's challenges from a different perspective.
She says, while the current team has made some great decisions, they've been lost in the chaos on council that has consumed the media.
McGuire-Blais says it's time for change from the top down and she wants to be that change.
She joins councillor Larry Snively and Essex businessman Rob Shepley who are also running for Mayor.
