Ah, election time. We're a little more than two months out from the May 17 primary that might reshape Portland City Council (or at least force run-offs that could) and establish a new mayor. And with the clock ticking, endorsements are rolling in.

We learned today that Commissioner Nick Fish is supporting state Treasurer Ted Wheeler's bid for Portland mayor. The announcement makes Fish the only member of council to pick sides in the race. Not even outgoing Mayor Charlie Hales (whose wife is a big-time booster for mayoral candidate Sarah Iannarone) has taken a stance.

But Fish has his horse.

"Portland faces many challenges," he said in a prepared statement released by the Wheeler campaign. "Ted is the best prepared candidate to address them..."

(As we noted in today's Good Morning News, Wheeler's chief rival, Jules Bailey, sewed up the rank-and-file police union's endorsement yesterday.)

But WAIT. Fish isn't the only one making a bold stance on the mayor's race. The city's Juggalos have now spoken, and their candidate is local activist Jessie Sponberg. At least, that's the case according to this Facebook page, Juggalos for Jesse Sponberg, which we'd assume was a joke, if assuming anything about the juggalo community hadn't proven unwise time and again. Beyond misspelling its purported candidate's name, the page features a bunch of magnet jokes and clown-makeup photoshopping.

We asked Sponberg about the page. He hasn't gotten back to us yet.

Update, 3:30 pm: Sponberg says he saw the Juggalos thing yesterday, and he's not at all mad about it.

"Our campaign has never sought nor accepted endorsements," he writes. "BUT if we did I would accept one from the Juggalos before I ever took one from someone currently on our City Council. I put a Nick Fish endorsement right up there with the police union endorsement."
