Fogg withdraws

Former Pensacola Mayor John Fogg has withdrawn from the mayor’s race, according to the Supervisor of Elections office. The inside scoop is that fundraising hasn’t gone well for John and he didn’t want to pay the qualifying fee from his personal funds.

The question is whether Charles Bare will pay to qualify. All the other candidates have qualified by petition: Ashton Hayward, Diane Mack and Mike Wiggins.
