Impact analysis
Taxpayers could face special election costs if Vang leaves her council seat early, while campaign spending itself is not a city expense.
Political rivals and campaign vendors benefit most, while voters get a higher-profile contest and potentially a chance to reshape the council.
Elk Grove residents could lose dedicated council representation if Vang focuses on Congress or vacates her seat, and the city could face election-related costs.
