The four candidates running for mayor of St. Louis took the stage at Harris-Stowe State University on Thursday night to make their case to residents just five days before the start of early voting in the primary.
Mayor Tishaura Jones, 8th Ward Alderwoman Cara Spencer, Recorder of Deeds Michael Butler and retired utility executive Andrew Jones took questions from audience members for nearly two hours at the wide-ranging forum, organized by the school and 100 Black Men of Metropolitan St. Louis.
“Our crowds are getting larger and larger, and it shows how many people are really concerned about the future of our city,” the incumbent said as the event wrapped up. “Times are tough, but St. Louis is tougher. I am not the one that's going to quit when the going gets tough.”
