David Luna registers as Liberal Party candidate for Bogota mayoral race

by Matt Snyder July 28, 2011

David Luna, the Liberal Party‘s choice for Bogota mayor, formally registered his candidacy Thursday.

A former member of Colombia’s House of Representatives, Luna said he was eager to enter the race and “welcomed” a fight against candidates such as Antanas Mockus and Enrique Peñalosa. Luna said he was that he was “ready to debate ideas and not insults.”

In a jab at Mockus and Peñalosa, who are both former mayors of Bogota, Luna said that “there are many candidates who represent the past, there are others who represent the future.”

Luna served for many years on Bogota’s city council. For the past two months, Luna has lagged behind Peñalosa and Socialist candidate Gustavo Petro in opinion polls.
