favor is the current Mayor. He is a progressive and he is clearly not well liked. My guess is that opens things up for a person like Max Rose, a left-moderate. Progressives (?, again, why do we allow one group of people to claim a category that fits all of us?) will likely split up the vote in a primary, if Rose is skilled enough, that should allow him to win the primary, and then dispatch the republican challenger.
