No idea. They must have all chickened out. His new district is even more heavily Hispanic than before (66% vs. 62%), and probably over 50% of voters (although not much more than 50%) are Hispanic. Actually, I would have liked two-time Republican mayoral candidate Orlando Sanchez take on Green. If he could mobilize Hispanic voters like he did in his 2001 mayoral race (although he wasn't quite able to repeat the results in 2003), he could beat Green in the general election.
