The 2015 Mt Vernon Democratic primary, can not come quick enough for some, with six
Mayoral candidates — Mayor Davis, Clinton Young, Ruth Hassell - Thompson, Maureen Walker & Richard Thomas (Deborah Reynolds will appear on the Conservative line
in the
General Election but not appear
in the Democratic primary) and seven city council candidates — Andre Wallace, Delia Farquharson, Diane Munro, Lisa Copeland, John Boykin, Janice Duarte (who is a Democrat running on the Independence Party line) and Cheryl Dennis who is running as an Independent (No party), all vying for two city council
seats available.
Galloway, who lost his Bradford West parliamentary
seat in last year's
general election, has said he will stand to be MP for Tooting if Labour incumbent and
mayoral frontrunner Sadiq Khan wins the contest and calls a by -
election.
