Timothy Davlin Politician

Timothy J. Davlin (August 27, 1957 – December 14, 2010) was the mayor of the U.S. city of Springfield, Illinois, from April 2003 until his suicide in December 2010. Though the Mayor's office is officially non-partisan, the Illinois capital has a strong tradition of partisanship, even for municipal races, and both major parties of Sangamon County endorse candidates. Davlin had the backing of the Democratic Party.
