NEW ALBANY, Ind. – After meeting Indiana’s petition requirements for all independent candidates, businessman Roger Baylor has qualified to be placed on the ballot in this fall’s mayoral contest.
Baylor will meet with supporters on Monday (July 13) at 8 a.m. in front of The Carnegie Center for Art & History (201 E. Spring St) to officially kick off his campaign. Interested media are invited to cover the event and the candidate will be available for questions during and after the event.
“I have always been uncomfortable saying ‘I’ because this campaign is all about ‘we,'” said Baylor, “but I want to offer my sincere personal thanks to all of those who signed our petition to gain ballot access and to all the volunteers who helped gather those signatures.”
Baylor, who is on leave from the New Albanian Brewing Company during the campaign, is the only independent candidate in the mayor’s race. He’ll face incumbent Democrat Jeff Gahan and Republican Kevin Zurschmiede, who currently serves on the New Albany city council.
Former New Albany City Clerk Marcey Wisman-Bennett serves as treasurer of Shift to Baylor, the official campaign committee.
