Darrell JordanDarrell Jordan informed the DallasBlog over the weekend that he will be taking a poll shortly, prior to deciding whether to run for Mayor of Dallas next year against Laura Miller.  He is sounding more and more like a candidate for Mayor.  Unlike the last election for Mayor of Dallas, there is no shortage of willing contenders lining up  to run against Miller.  The Mayor has lost much of her North Dallas support while the Black community is adamently opposed to her re-election.  She also has very little backing from  Hispanic leaders.  Other would-be candidates for Mayor are City Councilman Gary Griffeth, former Councilman Max Wells, and Texas Instruments Executive Phil Ritter.  The key to the race is which candidate can  forge a broad enough coalition to defeat Miller.  Jordan believes that he can put such a winning coalition together.
