Answer: Terms that describe the underlined portion of the sentence ("who is running for mayor") are: nonrestrictive and clause.

Explanation:

A clause is a grammar unit that, unlike a phrase, contains a verb and a subject. It is different from a sentence in that it does not convey a complete thought and does not make sense on its own. In this case, "who is running for mayor" is a relative clause.

*An appositive is a noun/noun phrase which identifies another element in a sentence (typically another noun phrase). This is not the case here, as this construction is a relative clause and not a noun phrase.

A nonrestrictive clause, also known as a nonessential clause, is a clause which provides details that are not essential for a sentence to make sense. In other words, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same without this clause - Sayeed Johnson will be speaking at the city library tonight.

Bradbury is trying to show how this society is constantly bombarded with media. In this case, it's advertisements pounding them into a passive state. No one on the train is talking or interacting. They are just sitting listening to the advertisement like they are being brainwashed into buying denham's dentifrice. In contrast to this Montag is trying to read a passage from the Bible about letting go of material things (including Denham's dentifrice). This juxtaposition between the natural world and materialism further shows how society is so wrapped up in media that they are unaware of the world around them.
