Special election in P.G. shaping up as rematch

The race to replace former Prince George’s County Councilwoman Leslie Johnson is shaping up to be a rematch of last fall’s primary election, as the candidates Johnson defeated then prepare to run again. Four of the five candidates who ran against Johnson in September — Derrick Davis, Arthur Turner, Venus Bethea and Mark Polk — have all expressed an interest in running in the upcoming special primary election in District Six, representing the Mitchellville area.

Gerron Levi, a former Maryland state delegate who ran unsuccessfully for county executive against Rushern Baker last fall, is also rumored to run.
