“The Morrell name certainly carries a lot of weight in the city, and he’s got the experience as well as the name recognition. Palmer has been out there as well, in terms of this issue of moving City Hall into Municipal Auditorium, so that’s given her a lot of face time in the media. And for Jared Brossett unfortunately most of the media attention has been negative as a result of the video that came out when he got into that accident on Elysian Fields,” Chervenak said.
For more than a year, the pandemic dominated Mayor LaToya Cantrell’s first term in office.

Chervenak says the pandemic may actually be a factor in that.
