With even less fanfare than the first time, 6th Ward Ald. Lewis Reed again announced yesterday he is running for Aldermanic President — this time in a hastily produced press release.
“It’s time to make a change as to who is should be [sic] seated in the next four years in the Aldermanic President’s chair,” Reed is quoted in the press release prepared by local PR man Gentry Trotter, who’s identified as Reed’s new director of communications.
“The economic growth of our city indicates that a successful team approach works better in the re-building of one St. Louis. The next Aldermanic President must represent all of the people and all of the interests which will help lay a deep structural foundation that we and our kids can build on.”

License Collector-elect Mike McMillan and 6th Ward Committeewoman Bev Buchheit are co-chairing Reed’s committee. And fellow aldermen Dionne Flowers and Jennifer Florida are listed as supporters.
Reed is running against incumbent Jim Shrewsbury in the March 6, 2007 primary.
