Cherelle Parker becomes Philadelphia's Democratic nominee for mayor.

Cherelle Parker, a Democrat with a long political history in Pennsylvania, won Philadelphia’s mayoral primary on Tuesday, likely setting her up as the city’s 100th mayor and the first woman to serve in the role. Parker emerged from a crowded field of five front-runner Democratic candidates vying to replace Democrat Jim Kenney, who is term-limited. She pledged to address public safety and quality of life issues in the city by putting more officers on the street to engage in community policing.
