More Gloucester Candidates
Three more candidates for Gloucester offices took out papers late this week, following my rundown on Wednesday.
Most importantly, Robin Hubbard announced for mayor. This would set up a preliminary election on October 4 city-wide. Hubbard is best remembered for her challenge to Mayor Tobey in 1999, and probably will have the support of the conservative leaders of the city. I suspect that Mayor Bell has been expecting this challenge, whether from Hubbard or one of the other leaders of the anti-tax, anti-government set.
In Ward 3, the previous incumbent wants his job back. City Council President Jim Destino didn't run two years ago for family reasons, only to watch one of his council rivals take the seat. While Jeff Worthley and Destino are both on the conservative side of the council politically, they are stylistically much different. With a third announced candidate, there would also be a preliminary election here.
Finally, the School Committee race got its sixth candidate (for the six seats) as Gerald Mahieu took out papers. The article in the paper presents two campaign positions: supporting the teachers and pushing to teach creationism in the middle school. OK.
More news as it develops.
