Kelty Front-Runner to be FW Mayoral Candidate

FWOB was the first to report that Paul Helmke will be leaving Fort Wayne to head the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. By doing so it made the primary for next year's Mayoral nomination a lot more clear for Republicans.

By filing his exploratory committee papers, Matt Kelty made the first claim for the nomination. This is the approach Ken Fries took for getting the sheriff's nomination. Look how the rest of the candidates had trouble gaining a foothold in that race because of it. I expect the same to be the case should other candidates appear to go for FW Mayor.
