Ald. Bryon Eagon will formally announce his endorsement for District 8 City Council candidate Scott Resnick Tuesday.
Resnick currently serves as the State-Langdon Neighborhood Association president. Resnick faces former Daily Cardinal columnist Kyle Szarzynski and former Daily Cardinal reporter Christian von Preysing-Barry in the race for Madison's Common Council.
District 8 covers a portion of Langdon Street, the Spring Street area and many UW-Madison dormitories.
Eagon has represented the district for the past two years.
Assistant Minority Leader of the Wisconsin State Assembly Donna Seidel is set to speak about Resnick at the event, according to a statement. Seidel represents Wisconsin's 85th Assembly District, which includes Resnick's hometown of Wausau.
Students for Resnick, a UW-Madison student organization, is hosting the event.
The candidates will face off in the general election April 5.
