There are three special elections on Tuesday, August 11th, to fill spots left when three state representatives resigned. The Inquirer had a nice article outlining the three races and the candidates for each ("'Sting caused 2 of 3 vacancies on Tuesday's special election ballot," by Chris Brennan, 8/09).
I wanted to say a bit about the 195th district. The paper says it has a 13-1 Democratic advantage. Democrat Donna Bullock formerly worked for City County President Darrell Clarke. She's a lawyer and has a really nice campaign website: http://www.donnabullock195.com/
The Republican candidate, Adam Lang, whose site (http://www.adamlang.com/195th/) could look a little snazzier since he's a computer guy, shouldn't be written off, though. Lang has been an active participant in his community for several years and is well-known in the area. He's low-key, even-keeled, and has a great sense of humor. To be honest, he's my favorite city Republican.
Regardless of who you vote for, if you live in the 195th, please go out and vote.
Hey, I do computer networking, not graphic design. ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, thank you for the kind words as always.
Adam,
ReplyDeleteWell, that explains the color scheme. ;)
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you will stay active in the community.
