…D’s running for the seat of retiring State Sen. Margaret Rose Henry.
Former City Councilman Darius Brown today announced his candidacy, according to WDEL.
Here is his campaign web page. He was previously a legislative aide to Sen. Henry, according to his website.
Brown ran for Wilmington City Treasurer in 2016 despite no finance bona fides in his background, and lost a close primary to (finger down my throat) Velda Jones-Potter. Ken Matlusky finished third. Vote totals: Jones-Potter: 4496; Brown: 4134; Matlusky: 2918. A rare example when the cynical white guy maneuver of splitting the votes of two black candidates didn’t work.
What do you think of Brown’s candidacy and the race in general?
