AINews Summary

Brett Smiley and David Morales remain the central race in Providence’s Democratic mayoral primary. Smiley has outspent Morales and is airing attacks on public safety, while Morales has picked up a teachers union endorsement. The contest still looks competitive, with money and endorsements pointing in different directions. Smiley’s fundraising edge and advertising may help him in the primary, but Morales has some labor support. The latest news keeps the race competitive rather than settled.
