Sheila Dixon

Scott celebrated his victory in a packed room in South Baltimore, with his fiancee and newborn baby by his side on stage — as supporters chanted “four more years.”

Dixon’s main message is that she is going to get the city back on track, like how she says it was under her administration in the 2000s.

Exactly two weeks ahead of primary election day, the leading Democratic candidates for Baltimore City mayor made their final pitches.

Mayor Brandon Scott, former Mayor Sheila Dixon, former prosecutor Thiru Vignarajah and businessman Bob Wallace are confirmed.

Ivan Bates’ endorsement comes days after the attorney told the Sun that “philosophical differences” have emerged between him and current Mayor Brandon Scott, who is also running to keep his seat in the primary.

“Asthma rates are too high and a lot of it has to do with the incinerator.”

Once again, in 2024 Baltimore voters will see a field crowded by Mayor Brandon Scott, Sheila Dixon, and now, Thiru Vignarajah. Local businessman Bob Wallace has also emerged as a competitive candidate for the position.

“I said I would love to be part of your administration… and really get these agencies running properly.”

“City Hall has reached a level of dysfunction that I never thought was possible, and our residents and our small businesses deserve better,” Costello said to a small group in Mount Vernon on Thursday afternoon.

“I know that improving the lives of the residents requires action, accountability, excellence,” said Dixon, who was convicted of misdemeanors charges in 2009.
