Moya, the union activist who has recently resigned from her post in the Ministry of National Development, will launch her campaign at Battlefield Park at two in the afternoon. She joins a crowded field of announced candidates including Kenrick Ysaguirre, Ernesto Torres, Rudolph Anderson, and Bernard Watler. Several others have also privately indicated a desire to run. The U.D.P. municipal convention will be held on October twenty-third.
