(WSJ) — Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s proposal to abolish partisan elections will probably not be on the ballot in November, four people familiar with the matter said Wednesday.
The Charter Revision Commission, the 15-member panel picked by the mayor to examine potential changes to the city constitution, is leaning against putting the proposal on the ballot this year. The move is a setback for Mr. Bloomberg, who has championed this issue since his second day on the campaign trail in June 2001.
