Gina Ortiz Jones comes at San Antonio mayoral race with strong resume, no City Hall experience

With the Dec. 4 unveiling of her run for San Antonio mayor, former Under Secretary of the U.S. Air Force Gina Ortiz Jones became a candidate to watch in the crowded race. Jones, a Democrat with two near-miss congressional races under her belt, said she’s raised more than $100,000 to support her mayoral run, and she’s landed the endorsement of the well-funded VoteVets progressive PAC. The San Antonio native and John Jay High School grad also boasts an impressive resume.
