He had until 5 P.M. Tuesday to provide the city with information regarding his candidacy but did not meet the deadline.

WSLS10 reached out to Jeffrey for a comment, but did not hear back.

The star city's only candidate, Sherman Lea, won the democratic nomination to replace out-going mayor David Bowers.

The local republican party did not enter a candidate in the race.
