WHO'S RUNNING FOR TUCSON MAYOR?

Tucson is the only municipality in the metro area with city council elections this fall, and before ballots go out next week, the candidates will appear in a half-hour forum on Arizona Public Media's radio and TV shows.

Green Party candidate Mary DeCamp, Republican Rick Grinnell and Democrat Jonathan Rothschild will appear in a special Arizona Illustrated episode Thursday. The entire half-hour show will be devoted to the Tucson Mayor's race. That will air at 6:30 p.m. Thursday on PBS-HD Channel 6. It will be rebroadcast on KUAZ radio (89.1 FM) at 6:30 p.m. Friday.

Rothschild, a lawyer, has the voter-registration advantage in Tucson. DeCamp ran for City Council in 2009, and hired her primary election opponent as her campaign manager for the general election. Grinnell has local business connections from his PR and lobbying firm. They discussed a selection of city issues in the forum this week.

Watch the half-hour special edition of Arizona Illustrated to hear from all three candidates.

In the meantime, check the AZPM city election website for more information on the candidates, plus their video bios and campaign finance reports.
