While Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry has not filed for re-election yet, he already has drawn a challenger for the 2019 mayoral race.

Democrat Doreszell “DC” Cohen actually filed in November.

An alumna of the University of Phoenix and Raines High School, Cohen has yet to raise any money for her bid against the mayor and his high-powered political machine.

We’ve reached out to Cohen to find out her reasons for running, and she pledged to get back to us.

When that happens, this piece will be updated.
