THE DAY IN REVIEW
How the mayoral candidates spent their day:
Richard Riordan disclosed a third alcohol-related arrest--for drunk driving in 1975. Riordan said that he had been confused when he said during a radio debate Wednesday that he had been arrested twice--about 25 years ago--for drunk driving and interfering with an officer. Woo asked Riordan to authorize law enforcement agencies to release his full criminal record, but Riordan denied that he had any other brushes with the law other than traffic tickets. Woo picked up the endorsement of the National Organization for Women’s local political action committee.
