Will Graham Richard Run in '07?

Mitch Harper recently interviewed Mark GiaQuinta and he was quoted on the subject of Graham Richard going for a 3rd term.

"I have the sense Graham may not run again."

Most people I've spoken with aren't sure what to think about it. Here are a couple of theories of my own.


  • Graham wants to keep Republicans guessing as to what he's up to. They can't create a strategy if they don't know if he will run.

  • Local Democrats are thin on quality candidates. Especially for one that as highly profiled as the mayor's office (their best candidates have gone Republican on the ticket). Graham may run if his party can't field a quality candidate.

Geoff Paddock is a name I've heard thrown out as a possibility should he lose to Phil GiaQuinta in the primary for the 80th House seat.

I hope so too. I think he would make a greater legislator than a Mayor.

Graham's been on the road a lot, in high profile speaking settings.

Methinks he's setting himself up to be a national consultant.

Future Democratic nominees? Rusty York? John Shoaff? Tom Henry?
