Little Rock City Director Michael Keck distributed a statement today that he read at the City Board meeting. He won’t be running for mayor, despite some speculation to the contrary. What’s more, the St. Vincent executive won’t be seeking re-election after 17 years on the Board. He’ll be missed. He was a West Little Rock advocate, but not a parochial one. He’s essentially a Republican, but not a reflexive one. There’s never been a better vote counter on the Board.

Too bad.
