Maria Quiñones Sánchez Withdraws from Philly Mayoral Race Citing Excessive Funding.

Former City Councilmember Maria Quiñones Sánchez is suspending her mayoral campaign due to the flood of money into the race from self-funding candidates and outside spending groups. Quiñones Sánchez supports public financing of elections to level the playing field between candidates with major financial backing and those without it. With Quiñones Sánchez gone, there are no Latino candidates in the race. She plans to endorse one of her rivals, but first she wants to hear where they stand on a new platform she is to release Sunday called Agenda Latina.
