They have to for the mayors first because mayors hold sway over the police chiefs. If they started from the rank and file LEOs, they'd get the opposite result from the one desired - most cops understand the benefits of an armed populace. This shows the importance of local elections; crappy mayors = corrupt police chiefs = more infringements on the 2A = higher crime. “…assemble a nationwide coalition of mayors to– mobilize the support of law enforcement…”
