Apparent vandalism edit

I removed this portion:

Luken also has a twin brother named Pete Luken who works for a local university. Reportedly, his brother Pete has expressed interest in displaying his children's drawings on the walls of his cubicle. As of yet, however, no decision has been made.

Irrelevant Information edit

I am removing this portion because the story of the mayoral race after Luken's last term is irrelevant to his biography/article:

The election race for his successor was narrowed down to two candidates after the primary run: first-term councilman David Pepper (son of John Pepper, the charismatic, former CEO of Procter & Gamble, which is one of the largest employers of the Cincinnati area) and Mark Mallory, a member of the state Senate. With the previous election following the city's racial divides so closely, the race of the candidates - Pepper is white, Mallory is black - was considered significant. Both candidates were members of the Ohio Democratic Party. Mallory was elected Luken's successor on November 8, 2005.
