Last minute push for votes in Philly's mayoral race

Last minute push for votes in Philly's mayoral race

Philadelphia's Democratic mayoral primary race has not been a contentious, public competition based on arguing the issues. Milton Street, who is challenging incumbent Mayor Michael Nutter hasn't launched much of a political campaign in the traditional sense. Hampered by a lack of money, he says he's focusing on community get-out-the-vote efforts. But Megan Mullin, an assistant professor of political science at Temple, said Street doesn't stand much of a chance. "It's not a tight race. Mayor Nutter is going to win."
