The fifth potential candidate for Mammoth Town Council has pulled candidacy papers.
Elena Blomgren is the latest possible candidate. All we know about her is that she has performed temporary services for the Town of Mammoth Lakes as a permit tech and on Measure R calculations. We hope to learn more about her.
Before Blomgren, Ken Murray, General Manager at Chart House, pulled papers. So did MLTPA’s Director John Wentworth, business woman Deb Pierrel, and Joe Parrino.
So far, none of the incumbents have pulled. If they don’t that would lengthen the March 7 deadline by five days. John Eastman has made it clear he will not seek re-election. Rick Wood and Matthew Lehman have not confirmed their positions.

Elena is a smart business woman. She’s seen the many good and not so good changes that has made Mammoth what it is today. Once elected she will be an intricate part in getting Mammoth back to what it once was.
“…she will be an intricate part in getting Mammoth back to what it once was…”
You know, maybe those that changed Mammoth Lakes shouldn’t have changed it? And maybe the people shouldn’t have let those people change it.
Mammoth Lakes is never going to be like it was. We still have to tear up Main St. and put in a landscaped median.
Back to what it once was? That ship has sailed. Move forward.
Elena is a very positive person, one of the nicest, and good natured people I know. She has a strong business background and loves Mammoth. She would be a great candidate to shake things up in the council, which as we all know is desperately needed. And although she is nice, she doesn’t take crap from anyone, and tells it like it is.
Heard a rumor that Kevin Green has now pulled papers as well.
In my admittedly limited experience with her, she’s a “simple thinker.”
So she should fit right in!
Finally someone with class, smarts, and no conflicts. Elena knows the town from the inside – and knows where the problems are. I hope she follows through and gets her name on the ballot! The Town would be lucky, indeed.
Thank you Elena. Finally a great candidate.
