Allan Challenging Wong and Campaign Recall Shifts in Mesa Mayoral Race
Allan calls for Wong medical records to prove fitness for a second term and endorses challenger Dana Harper. He launches a recall of the City Council, including Reno Hawker who exits in June, while tying opposition to a downtown vision plan and a Tribune land swap alleged to favor the paper. Allan cites MegaCorp and privatization as aims, and reveals a personal history in Mesa with family details and a Hawaii wedding plan.
