According to an Associated Press dispatch running today in the San Francisco Chronicle, Fletcher, who has been running behind in the polls in the race to become San Diego mayor, also told the news service about the move yesterday.
"In all candor, I probably should have done it sooner...I've been a member of this party for almost 20 years.
