Q&A #6: Boston Mayoral Prelim

"Christian" asks:

...who comes out in the top two of this primary for mayor: John Connolly, Marty Walsh, Rob Consalvo, Tito Jackson, Felix Arroyo, Ayanna Pressley, Mike Ross? How about when including John Fish in that group?

Pressley and Consalvo.

Or, I don't know, could be any of them, they're all strong candidates.  But I'll stick with Pressley and Consalvo, in that field this year. Probably don't need much more than 20% to get into the final, right? Pressley as the only woman, coming off the 2011 success, should clear that hurdle. Robbie has a pretty good path in that particular combo of candidates I think. 

I know everybody thinks Fish would be a very strong contender, and I believe it, but I don't think he cracks the top two in a strong crowded field like that.
