Slay continues to soak up the endorsements
If State Sen. Maida Coleman does indeed jump into the mayor’s race, she may have hardly anyone left to
endorse her.
The day after officially launching his bid for a third term, Mayor Francis Slay announced a fresh round of endorsements:
- St. Louis County Executive Charlie A. Dooley
- U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan
- State Sen. Jeff Smith
- Recorder of Deeds Sharon Quigley Carpenter
- Treasurer Larry Williams
- Tax Collector Gregory F.X. Daly
- Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce
- Public Administrator Gerard Nester
Though the list does represent a good cross section of city politics, it does leave off some high-profile names: U.S. Rep. Lacy Clay, Board of Aldermen President Lewis Reed, Comptroller Darlene Green.
It will be interesting to see where they stand on the mayor’s race.



Looks like Rodney Hubbard’s endorsement roster, except for Dooley.
