Dellums delays announcement

According to the Chronicle, Ron Dellums will not announce his decision whether or not to run for Mayor of Oakland until Friday. The announcement was originally thought to be scheduled for this weekend. Don't look for Dellums to be a stadium proponent.

Any kind of displacement of existing businesses, especially entrenched, established ones that contribute to the city's bottom line, is bound to be unpopular. A mayoral candidate is not likely to directly back anything quite this controversial if it could alienate voters. And now the Dellums has announced his candidacy, IDLF is going to have to preserve his base as much as possible.
