Two members of the Phoenix City Council have so far expressed an interest in running for mayor, once the current Mayor Greg Stanton resigns to run for Congress.

Both the mayor and council of the country’s fifth-biggest city have a lot on their plates, and this morning, we welcome Stanton — and we should point out that this interview was scheduled several weeks before he announced he’d be stepping down to run for Congress.
