The crowd gunning to replace Councilmember Jim Graham (D-Ward 1) seems to get bigger by the day.

Former Ward 1 ANC commissioner and D.C. Council contender Bryan Weaver is set to announce that he will formally enter the race against Graham, who he challenged in 2010. Though Weaver has established a campaign committee and set up a website already, he was quiet on any further details related to another run against the longtime incumbent. “We’ve laid the groundwork for the campaign in 2014, so stay tuned to see what we do,” he said.

Weaver made a name for himself in his 2010 race against Graham with his clever YouTube campaign videos and for criticizing the incumbent for his connections to developers. Some of those connections have recently come home to roost for Graham, who was found to have violated the city’s code of ethics for inappropriately inserting himself into a Metro land deal. (Graham has steadfastly denied that he did anything wrong.)

After losing that race, Weaver jumped into the April 2011 special election for an At-Large seat, coming in fourth to victor Councilmember Vincent Orange (D-At Large). He also advocated for stronger ethics laws and launched an initiative that would have banned corporate contributions to local campaigns; that initiative never made it to the ballot over a conflict with the D.C. Board of Elections over the signatures needed to get it there.

Weaver won’t be alone in his attempt, though. Former U Street ANC commissioner Brianne Nadeau is already in and has raised north of $40,000, and Mt. Pleasant activist Terry Lynch has said that he’s seriously considering a run.
