Lynne Abraham schedules mayoral announcement

Lynne Abraham, former district attorney, said she would soon announce her candidacy for mayor of Philadelphia.

Now we know when, as Abraham Thursday announced the announcement: High noon, next Wednesday, at the Franklin Institute. Specifically in the Karobots Paviliion, underneath the Shimmer Wall.

Abraham will be the third mayoral wannabe to make an official announcement of candidacy. First was Terry Gillen, a key aide in the Nutter administration. Second was Ken Trujillo, a former city solicitor.
