Friday?s Followings

By Abdul Hakim-Shabazz

It’s a good thing I gave my wife her Valentine’s Day presents yesterday, because I have a lot of things to follow this weekend.

Marion County Assessor Greg Bowes is formally announcing his candidacy for County Prosecutor this morning.   He plans to run against the slate.

Not to be outdone, former City-County Councilor Ron Gibson announces at noon that he’s running for Mayor of Indianapolis next year.

Marion County Republicans and Democrats will slate their candidates this weekend. I don’t expect too much excitement on the Democrat side, things could get interesting with the GOP in the race for Sheriff between Dennis Fishburn and Bart McAtee.    The main thing I’ll be watching is how motivated and excited each party is about their chances in November with current political climate.

Don Bates, Jr. is officially filing today for the U.S. Senate.

That enough for you?
