Stu Bykofsky reports in his Daily News column that Frank Rizzo, son of the former Mayor of Philadelphia of the same name, is definitely running for something. Rizzo says he has a Plan A and Plan B. The former and preferred option would be a mayoral run, while the latter plan, to run for an at-large City Council seat, will be implemented should “the political stars” fail “to align in a particular way.”
And Newsworks reports that despite the launching of Weinsteinfor2015.org earlier this year, Philadelphia developer Ken Weinstein is not running for mayor next year.
So far the only candidates to officially declare are Terry Gillen, Ken Trujillo, and Lynne Abraham.
The Declaration is considering but has yet to make an official endorsement for the next Mayor of Philadelphia, Pols, go ahead and bite those nails down to the knuckles.
