Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg officially announced his re-election campaign on Tuesday.
Greenberg, a Democrat, was elected in 2022 and took office in January 2023, succeeding former Mayor Greg Fischer.
On the eve of Election Day, both Louisville mayoral candidates made a final push to get people out to the polls.
The forum Thursday night centered around young voters, so they picked the topics they considered the most important.
Whoever takes office between Bill Dieruf, a Republican, and Craig Greenberg, a Democrat, is going to confront a number of challenges in January.
Louisville's leading candidates for mayor participated in a forum Thursday morning focused on the future of the city's parks.
The decision by Metro Council President David James to suspend his campaign for mayor because of health reasons has thrown the race wide open.
James, a Democrat, said Sunday on Twitter that "it would be disingenuous to continue fundraising" after he recently underwent prostate surgery and has another procedure scheduled soon.
Findley founded the Justice and Freedom Coalition last summer during racial justice protests that broke out in Louisville after the fatal police shooting of Breonna Taylor.
Opponents to the bill claim it is just a scheme to give Republicans a shot at winning the mayor's race in a heavily Democratic city.
