This is a joke.
No one even knows when the replacement special election for mayor will occur.
The new charter language is ambiguous.
Should it be next May, next November, or November 2009?
There is no right answer.
What a bleeping joke.
Whoever wrote the charter was a moron.
And gambling interests are about to roll in for the kill. This kid is perfect.
Interesting. Now both the county manager for Allegheny County, and the mayor of Pittsburgh are young guys.
You are correct - he died in 1988, while in office. Mrs. Fury was a cousin of Richard Caliguiri, I understand he was well generally well-liked.
I had forgotten -- Caliguiri pulled a Lieberman -- lost the Democratic Primary but then ran as an Independent -- dang, I want to say he ran as a write-in now -- but then rejoined the Democrats after the election.
