Nashville votes for its new mayor this Thursday, September 10. Regardless of the outcome, the election will make history.
If Megan Barry wins, she will be the first woman to serve as Nashville’s mayor – a major accomplishment by anyone’s measure.
If David Fox wins, he will be the first mayor in U.S. history who was previously a hedge fund manager.
Maybe there’s a good reason why no hedge fund manager has ever been elected mayor of a major city. Maybe there are some good reasons why David Fox should not be the first.
