Bethlehem No Longer has a Race For Mayor

And, then there was one.

Bethlehem now has a one person race for Mayor.  Independent Bob Sigmon has withdrawn from the race citing health concerns.  It is now too late for someone to get ballot access as an independent.  I can't imagine a scenario where Councilman Donchez is not elected Mayor.

Hopefully Mayor Callahan will work extra hard over the next few months to set things in motion that will keep the city moving forward for the next 4 years.

Jim Gregory is apparently still planning to launch a write in campaign.  I am not going to comment on Jim's attempt out of respect for almost 30 years of friendship.

  1. Any thoughts on Jim Gregory's impending release and professed desires to revive the Unity PAC?

    1. I have not given it a moments thought - He was not very effective before this now he will be irrelevant. I wish him well and hope he finds peace and serenity

    2. He has kept himself in the public consciousness via letters to the editor of both dailies which have elicited lot's of debate, in my own correspondence with him he has expressed a fervent desire to run for Mayor of Bethlehem as a Republican due to being shunned by the Long Dems.

      He is in amazing shape both physically, mentally, and spiritually this period of incarceration may be just what he needed to self actualize. It is truly tragic that his name was dragged through the mud by the deviant author of LVR and Bill White, what they don't realize is Jim's charisma is so radiant that when he goes door to door people will climb on board his good looks are truly captivating.

    3. Was this serious response? Hard to tell since you are using a phony douche bag name.
