Pick up the phone, quick! It could be Larry Langford calling. The Jefferson County Commissioner and former mayor of Fairfield will robo-dial 100,000 Birmingham voters today to let them know he’s running for mayor. Yes, with a mere four months to Election Day, it’s now a three-way race between Patrick Cooper, Valerie Abbott and Langford. At least the debates will be louder, if not, well, louder.

The folks over at Mixed Media — unimpressed with his slogan, “Let’s do something” — have asked for new suggestions, with a beer and a sandwich to the winning entry. Our contribution: “Welcome to Electric Larryland — enjoy the ride.”
