When Dallas mayor contender Darrell Jordan launched his mayoral campaign earlier this year, he outlined an agenda built upon public safety improvements, economic development, long-term urban planning and political and racial unity. Darrell opined that what Dallas needs is a mayor who listens to differing views and who is respectful of the city’s diversity. He explained that there was far too much racial polarization present in the city and that the first three priorities cannot be effectively met unless a tone of civility and teamwork is given in return to the City Hall.
Darrell has served as President of both the Dallas Bar Association and the State Bar of Texas, and has served as a member of the Board of Governors and Executive Committee of the American Bar Association. As President of the Dallas Bar, he was instrumental in creating legal clinics throughout the city to help people who could not afford lawyers. These clinics are held in neighborhood locations and are staffed by volunteer lawyers to assist those in need.
Darrell Jordan was placed second behind former Mayor Ron Kirk in Dallas’ 1995 mayoral election. Darrell Jordan joins two-term council member Gary Griffith, former Mayor Pro Tem Max Wells and magazine editor Zac Crain among actively campaigning mayoral hopefuls. The present mayor Laura Miller will not be running for a third term.
