Republican strategist Alice Rolli has entered the 2023 Nashville mayoral race, according to the Nashville Scene. Rolli was campaign manager for Tennessee Republican Sen. Lamar Alexander’s 2014 reelection bid and worked for several years in the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development during GOP Gov. Bill Haslam’s time in office. She was also an adviser to Republican Randy Boyd’s unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign in 2018 and was involved in an effort to stop a development near Fort Negley in 2017. Rolli’s campaign Treasurer David Fox, who lost his mayoral bid in 2015, says that for Rolli, the measure of the city’s success is “the quality of life for all who are committed to make our city their home,” not how many corporations city leaders can incentivize to relocate.
