(La Porte, IN) - Despite a great deal of speculation that he wants to run for a seat in Congress or some other higher office like the governor, it appears La Porte Mayor Tom Dermody is planning another run for mayor.

Dermody told the Morning Mayhem Radio Show on 96.7 the Eagle that he often gets contacted about his political aspirations but feels his work here is not done.

“I love this city, and I got more work to do. I’m excited if the residents will take me to have another term here in the City of La Porte,” he said.

Dermody is in the third year of his first term as mayor. He was a state representative for ten years and a business owner before his landslide victory for mayor.

Dermody also once served on the La Porte School Board.
