Rockford - There could soon be a new player in the race to become the city's next mayor.
Michael Kleen (R) picked up a petition packet from the Board of Elections today. He most recently made an unsuccessful run in the March primary for the Winnebago County Board.
If Kleen declares his candidacy, he'll go up against incumbent Mayor Larry Morrissey (I) and former city alderman, Jim Hughes (D).
