and the state doesn't require resignation to run for another office (e.g., Josh Shapiro was still AG while he ran for Governor). However Philly DOES require city-elected officials to resign if running for another office in the city, so we had 4 City Council members and 1 City Controller resign this year in order to run for mayor next year. Alternately, when Malcolm Kenyatta ran for U.S. Senate in the primary, he remained a state Rep. despite being a Philly resident (but not in a city office running for another city office).

Mastriano needs to be thrown in prison before that election happens though.
