In case you forgot, there’s a mayoral election coming up in Philadelphia. Philadelphia Weekly reminded us of that today in its Philly Now blog.
So far, Nutter’s got just one opposer: Republican Loyal Opposition candidate John Featherman. While everyone expects a GOP challgenge from the Republican City Committee, more candidates have yet to come forward.
Featherman, a realtor, talked to PW about the policies he disagrees with and the cuts he’d like to make.
Feed the Feed: Who else should run for mayor? Our noms go to School District of Philadelphia Superintendent Arlene Ackerman, former Philly mag editor Larry Platt and a Sam Katz/John Street mayor/deputy mayor team. Let’s keep this election interesting!
