Candidates for the Dallas General Election
I've been getting a lot of questions about who I think will be Dallas' next mayor. My answer was usually, "isn't there like 47 people running?" I had a general idea who would be the major players, but I knew I needed to bone up on the candidates. So I did a little homework over the weekend. Below is a list of candidates for the May 12, 2007, Dallas General Election. This information is available as a PDF document on the City of Dallas Website. The document lists the treasurer for each campaign, as well as the candidate's contact information.
