The D.C. mayor race’s ‘delicate dance’

The D.C. mayor's race features seven Democratic candidates vying to succeed Muriel Bowser, navigating challenges of balancing federal and local interests under Donald Trump's influence. Key issues include public infrastructure projects like Meridian Hill Park's fountain, police reform, and skepticism toward Trump's 'beautification' initiatives. Frontrunners Janeese Lewis George and Kenyan McDuffie, along with outsider candidates like Rini Sampath and Gary Goodweather, debate funding sustainability and leadership changes in the Metropolitan Police Department.
