PEKIN, Ill. – The woman who currently ends up filling the mayor’s shoes in Pekin when the mayor isn’t available now wants the job for good.
Becky Cloyd — Pekin Mayor Pro Tempore — announced on social media Monday she’s running for Pekin Mayor in next year’s election.
It’s not yet clear if incumbent Mayor Mark Luft — who was defeated in the June primary for his other job as State Representative — is running again.
Cloyd, after being born in the city, moved south at age 12, but returned in 2006.
She’s a graduate of Liberty University and currently owns a fitness business, living in Pekin’s Sunset Hills area.
