As first reported Sunday evening, former Dallas ISD Superintendent Dr. Michael Hinojosa told CBS 11 he won't run for Dallas Mayor next spring.
Hinojosa, who left his job last July earlier than planned so he could consider a run, said he decided against challenging Mayor Eric Johnson because the timing isn't ideal, his consultant work is keeping him very busy and that it would be difficult to campaign for the job."If you look at the story of Dallas, it's actually a national success story," Johnson said."We've done a lot of great things in this city over the past four years.
Hinojosa's decision not to run comes as Mayor Johnson has received numerous endorsements and raised a lot of money. A campaign finance report from this past July shows Johnson raised more than $331,000 between January 1 and June 30 of this year and had more than $875,000 in his office-holder account.
