**The Executive Board had previously recommended a dual endorsement of Tim Burgess and Ed Murray for Mayor. Because Tim dropped out of the race, the Executive Board decided unanimously to reconvene Monday night to consider a new recommendation in this race. On Monday, the Board voted 14-2 to recommend a sole endorsement of Ed Murray.
