Orshalick to launch Mayor campaign

Mayoral Candidate David Orshalick, who has been fairly quiet since getting on the ballot in August, will officially launch his “bold mayoral campaign” tonight. In a news release, Orshalick announced that he will kick off his campaign at the Upper District 7 Candidate Forum, which is taking place at 7 p.m. at the St. Albert’s Church on Metric Boulevard. In his news release, Orshalick promises to “shake things up” at City Hall, writing, “Austin is worth saving. The time has come to move away from the ineffective, nonresponsive City government that led us to this precipice … Together, we can create and implement a plan that leads Austin into a vibrant and viable future where residents and visitors alike can experience the affordable high quality of life we deserve.”
