Anderson in ?11?

By Abdul Hakim-Shabazz

There’s more evidence that Marion County Sheriff Frank Anderson is planning a run for Mayor in 2011.

Anderson’s political action committee, Citizens of Frank J. Anderson, had a political fundraiser last night at the Crowne Plaza in downtown Indianapolis.

It was $100 a person and about 50 people attended.

I’m still working to confirm that many of the attendees were Sheriff’s Department employees who were not happy to be there, but felt compelled.  It would not surprise me as morale at MCSD is extremely low these days.

Anderson joins a growing list of potential Mayoral candidates which includes former Deputy Mayor Melina Kennedy, former Secretary of State Joe Hogsett, former State Health Commissioner Dr. Woody Myers and local businessman Brian Williams.
