FCJ reported<\/a> in October BART Board Director Tom Radulovich is considering throwing his hat into the 2010 race for District 8 Supervisor. \u00c2\u00a0 He has now confirmed he will not run and will, instead, throw his support behind Board of Appeals Commissioner Rafael Mandelman<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I have decided not to run,” Radulovich told FCJ. “I am enthusiastically supporting Rafael.”<\/p>\n

Radulovich previously ran in 2002 for the open District 8 supervisor seat vacated by then Supervisor Mark Leno.\u00c2\u00a0 He placed third with 19.26 percent of the vote before a runoff between Supervisor Bevan Dufty and San Francisco Ethics Commissioner Eileen Hansen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
