Hogsett Exits Race for Mayor
Just got this e-mail from Joe Hogsett.
In recent months, many friends and long-time supporters have encouraged me to run for mayor in 2011. They all expressed concern that Indianapolis is moving in the wrong direction — for our families, for our economy and for our future. It’s a concern I share and it is that concern that led me to consider running. I have spent the summer visiting with rank and file Democrats all over Indianapolis, and while I’m flattered by the encouragement many have offered, I have decided that I will not be a candidate for mayor. I think Democrats will have several well-qualified candidates from which to choose, all of whom will present their own ideas for getting our city moving again. I look forward to doing all I can to support the Democratic nominee for mayor.
I guess it’s official.
