Cianci Mulls Comeback Bid in Providence

Rhode Island Public Radio: “As the longest serving mayor in Providence history, Vincent A. ‘Buddy’ Cianci Jr. is known both for his skills as a political showman and the criminal charges that twice forced him from City Hall. Now, at age 73 and almost done with his treatment for colon cancer, Cianci is considering another run for the top job in Rhode Island’s capital city. Because there’s a large field of candidates splitting the vote, the former mayor has a credible shot at winning.”
