Anthony Foxx
Foxx, in his second term as an at-large city council member, told the Observer he’s sent letters to friend and supporters. He said he’s getting the word out now to let people know that he’ll run whether or not Republican Mayor Pat McCrory is around to try for an eighth term. McCrory is running for governor in Tuesday’s election.

Charlotte Republicans have held the seat since 1987, so it will certainly be interesting to see what happens, as Republican incumbent Pat McCrory has held the position since 1995. Should McCrory become governor, the race will be wide open – and Foxx’s name is well known in the area.
