Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval has two challengers in the May 6 primary election. The top two candidates will go on to the general election on Nov. 4.
Cory Bowman is the half-brother of Vice President JD Vance. Brian Frank is a former Procter & Gamble Co. employee whose campaign slogan is “Make Cincinnati Great Again.”
Immigration and housing have become major talking points in the campaign, but both challengers will face a struggle unseating the incumbent mayor.
On Cincinnati Edition, we take a closer look at the candidates and their policy differences.
