Mayor Ackerman in Irvine?

We got a tip Wednesday morning and a second tip Wednesday afternoon alerting us that State Senator Dick Ackerman had decided to run for Mayor in Irvine once his term in the State Senate is complete.

I called the Senator’s Tustin office Thursday morning, and the person answering the phone said, “It’s the first I’ve heard of this.” I was referred to the press office and Ackerman spokesman Tom Collins. I left a message with my cell; no return call. I called back late in the afternoon and reached a staffer who gave me the same answer; “It’s the first I’ve heard of this.” She said Senator Ackerman was on the phone but he’d call me back. I didn’t get a return call.
