Miamians can head to the polls starting Monday through Nov. 1, to vote for a new mayor and three new commissioners before the Nov. 3 general election.

Miami City Commissioners Joe Sanchez and Tomás Regalado are vying to replace Miami Mayor Manny Diaz, who is term-limited after eight years in office.

Competing for Sanchez's District 3 seat are seven candidates: Guillermo ``Willie'' Chacon, Frank Carollo, Mavel Lopez, Antonio Colmenares, Pedro R. Diaz, Maria Sardiña Mann and Luis C. Morse.

In the race to replace Regalado, who represents District 4, the contenders are: Francis X. Suarez, Oscar Rodriguez-Fonts, Denis Rod and Manolo Reyes. The winner will finish Regalado's unexpired term, which ends in 2011.

In District 5, incumbent Michelle Spence-Jones is running for re-election against challengers Jeff Torain and David Chiverton.

The winners in each of the three races will serve for four years.

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. from Monday to Friday and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Voters must bring their voter registration card and another form of identification.

The following locations will be open for early voting:

• Stephen P. Clark Center, 111 NW First St.

• West Flagler Branch Library, 5050 W. Flagler St.
