Local Campaign Spotlight: Manning For Mayor

This Patch article is sponsored by Manning For Mayor.

Local businesses are the heart of our communities. Patch had a chance to talk with James Manning, Candidate for Mayor, of Manning For Mayor.

Patch: Tell us a bit about your business or organization:
James Manning: I have pastored the ATLAH World Missionary Church located in Harlem, New York for more than 40 years. Recently, I decided to run for the mayor of NYC as I observed the declining conditions of the city under the leadership of Mayor Eric Adams.

Patch: How long have you been doing business in town?
James Manning: ATLAH World Missionary Church has operated for more than 40 years in the community of Harlem. Manning For Mayor has been in operation for approximately 5 months.

Patch: What attracted you to the line of work you’re in, and how did you get started?
James Manning: The greedy corporations have been stealing real estate property from many owners within New York City, and they have recently tried to steal our church as well. My fight against these corporations, and corrupt politicians as well as unjust policies against New Yorkers have fueled my desire to help the people of our great city.

Patch: What's the most common piece of advice you give to customers?
James Manning: Never give up, never quit and don't be a victim, be the victor!

Patch: What’s the most satisfying part of your job?
James Manning: I like to see people overcome their adversities and accepting the truth about themselves.

Patch: How would you say your business or organization distinguishes itself from the others?
James Manning: I will not compromise the truth no matter who it affects nor will I lay down my values and beliefs.
