Former Youngstown City Council President John R. Swierz will seek to recapture his old position in the May 2017 Democratic primary. A former longtime 7th Ward councilman, Swierz is the only person to date to announce his candidacy for the position.
The seventh ward council seat isn't up for election for several more years. Maybe he (JRS) is thinking about running for president of city council. The president of city council primary election will be in the spring of 2017.
Just a heartbeat away from being the Mayor.....his lifelong dream!
he should do what harry meshel does. hm works to promote young and new blood to the political arena.
