KJZZ hosted a panel of the Phoenix mayoral candidates on Thursday at Rio Salado’s campus.

The four candidates vying for the open seat include former Phoenix city council members Kate Gallego and Daniel Valenzuela, both Democrats; Republican Moses Sanchez and Libertarian Nicholas Sarwark. KJZZ’s Mark Brodie moderated the panel.
