Kochanowski Withdraws from Race
City Times Staff
Alex Kochanowski has announced he is withdrawing from the race for Mayor of Stevens Point.
Kochanowski had been running in this month’s primary race, which now becomes a contest of five: Tony Patton, Barb Jacob, Mike Wiza, Jerry Moore and Bob Larson.
City Clerk John Moe said Kochanowski’s name will remain on the primary ballot Feb. 16 because he did file candidacy papers.
Until recently Kochanowski was an employee in the city’s transit department. He currently sits on the Stevens Point School Board.
Kochanowski said he’s now supporting Barb Jacob. He did not give a reason for the withdrawal.
