We just can’t wait to get the word out about the first in our series of hour-long specials focusing on the Spring mayoral primary in Philadelphia. Hence the distracted looks on our faces as we compose tweets on our smart phones.
Our first special focuses on the issue of leadership, and we get the takes of some former mayors about what it takes to do the job. We bring you a look at a changing Philadelphia neighborhood, the push to attract millennial voters, the changing racial politics of voting, and the ever evolving world of campaign finance.
