Arrington expected to endorse Sparks
Former Birmingham Mayor Richard Arrington Jr., is expected to announce his support for gubernatorial candidate Ron Sparks at a Wednesday news conference in Kelly Ingram Park in Birmingham.
The endorsement should spark interest.
Arrington, the city's first black mayor, would be endorsing the white candidate in the Democratic primary. Sparks, the two-term agriculture commissioner in the state, is facing U.S. Rep. Artur Davis, the Democratic congressman from Birmingham. Davis is black.
