Today, I announced that I’m running for re-election. Charlotte is a city of opportunity, and I’m proud of the progress we’ve made together. But, there is still work to do - and I’m ready to keep doing it.

@MissEdwardsCLT @pitkin_ryan Congrats& best wishes forever!!!

[Mayor Vi Lyles @ViLyles]

Lynn Wheeler believed in her party and her city. She put residents first and politics second. She would build relationships ahead of difficult votes, most notably the arena relocation to Uptown. She was always prepared. Always for Charlotte. We send our condolences to her family.

[Mayor Vi Lyles @ViLyles]

Thank you, Charlotte, for re-electing me as your mayor! I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together next!
