Former San Diego City Councilman Carl DeMaio announced today that he will not run for mayor of San Diego. Saying his focus is on his agenda of reforming government, not a particular office, DeMaio confirmed that he will continue with his challenge of Rep. Scott Peters (D-San Diego) in a congressional race next year.
Supervisor Ron Roberts also announced he would not seek the post. Roberts said, “I made this decision after much discussion with my family and close supporters. I will be forever grateful for their confidence.”
Interim Mayor Todd Gloria is expected to announce his intentions sometime today and Councilmember Kevin Faulconer has said he will announce his decision Wednesday.
