Rock Island mayoral candidates share their views before Tuesday election
Voters will be headed to the polls Tuesday, when – among other city races – the position for Rock Island mayor is up for grabs.
Both current Mayor Mike Thoms and military veteran Ashley Harris are vocal about their priorities if elected.
Gavin Waidelich of Our Quad Cities News spoke with them for Your Local Election Headquarters.
Incumbent Mayor Thoms is reaching the end of his second term and looks to serve a third. He says his experience managing the city gives him an advantage, and he can “hit the ground running and be productive, day one.”
