Hope he runs. So far he’s the more interesting and untainted candidate, and has no slimy ties to the current incompetent administration.
David — bravo! You’re just the type of completely committed, financial and business savvy entrepeneur government needs.
Don’t assume he runs as a Democrat; that’s a nonstarter. He loses in the primary against that field.
His place is in the new party being constructed by Greg Ballard’s run for SOS. That party will exist to enable good candidates who would get killed in the primary to run in the general election. PERFECT for David Becker. And lucky for Indianapolis.
He would be great! Smart, problem solver, and NOT a career politician.
Not a bad candidate, but he wouldn’t fare well against either of the candidates that are likely to be the democratic nominee.
Mark: that “new party” being assembled by petitions for Greg Ballard, would need to make the ballot this year and attain a decent percentage to remain on future ballots. Ballard’s mission is huge: he needs almost 38000 signatures in the next month, which means he’ll effectively need to gather twice that many. Pretty sure an Independent campaign for mayor would need to gather several thousand signatures. Next year.
Seems like having his business based in Fishers instead of the city might be a challenge?
yep
Great option!
yay, another old white guy.
