Who's running in Philadelphia's top primary elections in May
The races for Philadelphia's district attorney and independent fiscal watchdog are taking shape with roughly two months until the May primary.
The big picture: The Democratic primary is the main attraction in Philly elections.
The winner is heavily favored to win in November's election due to Democrats' overwhelming share of Philly's registered voters.
State of play: Tuesday was the deadline for Democratic and Republican candidates running in the top two citywide elections to get on the May 20 ballot.
