People s Victory in Atlanta Mayoral Runoff
In a bitter runoff, Sam Massell won the Atlanta mayoral race with 55.5 percent of 149 precincts counted. Maynard Jackson became vice mayor elect, the city’s first Black vice mayor, as Alabama voters turn out. Massell, 42, faced accusations of anti Semitism from retiring Mayor Ivan Allen Jr. after an eleventh hour attack over campaign funds. Allen remained neutral until releasing a police report alleging Massell solicited funds from nightclub owners via a police vice squad captain for his brother. Massell denied wrongdoing and said the anti Semitism charge reflected a power structure trying to block him. Atlanta will then have a Jewish mayor and a Black vice mayor. The city’s electorate totals 104,000 in the runoff, with about 40 percent Black registered voters. Two Black aldermen won, but a Black school board candidate failed.
