Dan Miller
Harrisburg Treasurer Dan Miller has announced that he intends to run for city mayor.
In a brief press release, Miller said that he would enter the growing field of candidates.
“Harrisburg has tremendous potential,” Miller said, in a statement. “New, competent, enthusiastic leadership can make tremendous strides towards a thriving Harrisburg.”
Miller plans to hold a press conference on Thursday on his candidacy.
Incumbent Mayor Wanda Williams has said previously that she plans to run for a second term, though she has not yet formally announced her candidacy. City Council member Lamont Jones has said that he will pursue the office, as well.
Miller, 68, previously ran for mayor in 2013, losing to former Mayor Eric Papenfuse.
In addition to treasurer, Miller has served on Harrisburg City Council and as city controller.
The primary election is slated for May 20.
