With an announcement saying,"He's Back!" like MJ did back in the day, Kasim Reed is running to become the ATL's Mayor again!
Atlanta, tell LA, tell New York, tell Charlotte, tell Dallas, tell Chicago and definitely tell Miami, I'm back.
Reed announced his candidacy Thursday night with a birthday fundraiser at the home of singer Tyrese Gibson.
Mayor Reed held the position from 2010-2018. He was Atlanta's 59th Mayor.
Back in 2015, I had the opportunity to visit with the former Mayor's administration and learn what they were doing around data driven government. I witnessed a leader who operated with a spirit of excellence and required the same of his team.
Keisha Lance Bottoms, Atlanta's current Mayor, recently announced that she was not running for re-election.
