In an announcement that stunned the political community and became the instant frontrunner for “story of the year” in this city, Revere Mayor Brian Arrigo announced Tuesday that he will not be a candidate for re-election in 2023.
With his numerous accomplishments in office and exceptional leadership during the pandemic, Arrigo loomed as a virtual shoo-in for re-election.
Some observers had suggested that his impressive record as mayor had set a strong foundation to a run for statewide office last fall.
