Raleigh Mayor Mary-Ann Baldwin will not run for re-election
RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Raleigh Mayor Mary-Ann Baldwin announced that will not run for re-election.
In a video posted to YouTube she broke down her decision.
She announced in the video that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023. She said the cancer was caught early, and successful surgery gave her a great outlook.
That health scare initially made her more dedicated to running for re-election. However, then her husband had complications with open-heart surgery, and their beloved dog was hospitalized.
