Some major elected and former-elected politicians have given their support to Jefferson Circuit Court Clerk David Nicholson in the Louisville Democratic primary for mayor.
Nicholson announced on Wednesday the endorsements of 32 current and former elected officials as their candidate for mayor.
State Sen. Gerald Neal said, “David Nicholson is the only candidate with service in all three branches of government and has the extensive relationships that will make him effective the moment he is sworn into office.”
“David Nicholson’s thirty plus years of public safety experience puts him at the right place at the right time for our city. Let’s not miss this opportunity to elect him,” said Joni Jenkins, the Kentucky House of Representatives Minority Floor Leader. “I have known David Nicholson for many years – he will listen to residents and restore trust, and he will bring honesty, integrity, and safety back to our city. We need him,” added State Rep. Mary Lou Marzian.
