Peoples ran for mayor against Betsy Price in 2019 and garnered just under 42% of the vote. Peoples is chair of the Tarrant County Democratic Party.
The Council solicited information from candidates on their website to make their selection. Along with Peoples, who is one of 10 candidates running for Fort Worth mayor, the organization also endorsed candidates in other area races in the May 1 elections.
