FILE--This combination of three file photos shows, left, then state Auditor General Jack Wagner in Philadelphia on Friday, May 7, 2010. The center photo shows Bill Peduto in a file photo from March, 2005. The photo at right is a 2006 file photo of Luke Ravenstahl, the incumbent mayor of Pittsburgh who is not seeking re-election. In heavily Democratic Pittsburgh, which hasn't elected a Republican mayor since the Great Depression, that successor is likely to be crowned in Tuesday's primary in which former state Auditor General Jack Wagner and City Councilman Bill Peduto are badly outpacing two other Democrats, state Rep. Jake Wheatley and community activist A.J. Richardson. (AP Photos/Wagner/Matt Rourke, Peduto-Ravenstahl /Keith Srakocic)
