A short Press Release clip for this one. I'll say right now that I support the mayor's re-election, certainly against Councilman Danny Thomas (if he files like planned) and anyone else that gets in the race including Leslie.
Austin Mayor Will Wynn filed for re-election today when he gave over 450 petition signatures to Rosemary Ybarra in the City Clerk's office. Wynn's campaign has 1007 individual small contributors as of today, totaling $91,240.
"We've been going strong," said Mayor Wynn, "and we don't plan to slow down any time soon. No one has raised this much from this many donors this early in a city campaign since the '97 ordinance, and I'm just so proud that my vision for the city is supported enthusiastically by so many. I'm proud to run again for Mayor of the greatest city, in the greatest state, in the greatest county in the world, Austin, TX."
Today was the first day for candidates to file for the May election, and filing will remain open until March 13th.
Take the Poll on the flip.
