Former Atlantic City Mayor Lorenzo Langford is said to be kicking the tires on a mayoral run next year.

Cold-cocked 50-47% by Republican Don Guardian in 2013, the former leader of the seaside gambling mecca (2002-2006) and (2008-2014) is said to be in the feel-out phase of running for the full four-year term in 2021.

He’s not the only one.

Councilman Mo Delgado is also making the rounds to garner support for Mayor next year.

“He does not have much of a shot,” a source told InsiderNJ.

Having announced his support for incumbent Mayor Marty Small this year, Langford might be past his due date, too; there is some buzz about him trying to reconnect with Craig Callaway against one-time common foe incumbent Small.

But the politically busy Small (taking the helm of City Hall from a corruption-imploding Frank Gilliam, then winning the referendum election and handily winning the primary) presumably in search of a full four-year term next year if he gets past his Republican challenger on Tuesday, would conceivably be able to make a case against a confluence of decaying dinosaurs.

There is a scenario that a crowded field of 5+ candidates for mayor would yield a south Asian candidate winning with a plurality, but Small – not without the troubles of accumulated Atlantic City skirmishes but a strong crisis manager, is still the favorite at present.
