Tomeka Hart says she won't be a candidate

On Facebook just now, Memphis City Schools board member Tomeka Hart posted: "Tomeka Hart thanks Ken for the "Draft Tomeka Hart for Mayor" page, but assures you all that I will not join that madness (not this year anyway!). I love Memphis too much to be part of the mess that's brewing. We do need a young, energetic, visionary, strong, cooperative leader who wants to actually serve the people and not themselves. Let's get at it Facebook!"
