Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh is running for reelection this year. He's the first independent candidate to win a mayoral election in nearly a century, but this year he has plenty of competition. Democrats Khalid Bey and Michael Greene, and Republicans Janet Burman and Thomas Babilon are all challenging the incumbent mayor. A June 22 primary will determine who will run against Walsh in November.
