Tim,
While it's a good thing to ask others for input on the question of whether to run for a seat on the district council, I'd like to hear your reasons for considering the question. What is it that you believe you would bring to the council? What is it that you want the council to accomplish?

In my opinion running just to contest an election is not a sufficient reason to run. It's important to know why you are running - and what you hope to accomplish.
You don't have to say your opponent is bad in order to run - you can just say I think I offer these strengths to the position.
One mistake I see when candidates run for things - is that there speeches often will talk about issues that the office they are running for doesn't address.
I second Charlie's point completely.
