TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Mayor Andrew Gillum seems to be "seriously considering" a run for Florida governor.

On his Twitter, he expressed that he was opening himself up to the idea:

This comes after a petition was started, calling him a candidate that "empowers people to take progressive action".

He also took to Facebook once again on Friday, saying that he felt he owed "a debt to the people of Florida."

Supporters for Gillum say corporate special interests and political insiders limit choices for voters to those with personal wealth or famous last names.

So is Andrew Gillum making a bid for Florida Governor? Only time will tell.
