2013 Harrisburg mayoral election
The 2013 mayoral election in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was held on November 5, 2013, and resulted in Eric Papenfuse , a local bookstore owner and Democrat , being elected to his first term.[1]
Background [ edit ]
Incumbent first term Democratic mayor Linda D. Thompson was extremely unpopular. In large part due to her calling City Controller Dan Miller, the first openly gay official in Harrisburg, a “homosexual, evil little man” along with other inflammatory rhetoric.[2] [3]
Campaign [ edit ]
Thompson sought re-election but would face challenges in the Democratic Primary in the form of Dan Miller, the aforementioned City Controller, and Eric Papenfuse, a local bookstore owner.[4] Papenfuse would win the nomination but Miller would run for mayor under the Republican ticket as the party failed to field a candidate.[5] [2] [6] Papenfuse would go on to defeat Miller a second time during the general election and become Harrisburg's new mayor.[7] [8]
