Mayors Race
FILE - In this Sept. 24, 2009 file photo, New York City Comptroller and mayoral candidate William Thompson Jr. address a crowd at the "Stand for Freedom in Iran" rally against Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad near the United Nations headquarters in New York. The Democratic National Committee has said nothing about Thompson's uphill battle to unseat Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the popular billionaire who has spent $64.8 million of his own money on the race, or 16 times what Thompson has spent.
