Tuesday, May 21st is Primary Election Day

Tuesday, May 21^st is Primary Election Day in Pennsylvania. It may not have the SIZZLE as last year’s Presidential Election, but IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT none-the-less. County Judge Races, School Board Races, as well as Local Municipal Races for Township Supervisor, Tax Collector & Auditor are IMPORTANT to you as a local Resident.

Being a Primary, you may only vote in your registered party’s primary races. Quite simply, if you're registered as a Democrat, you may only vote for candidates that are on the Democratic Primary Ballot.

In regards to School Directors, and County Judges, candidates registered to vote as either a Democrat or Republican, in most cases will appear as cross-filed candidates in BOTH political parties races. It is extremely IMPORTANT for registered DEMOCRATS to obtain a copy of the OFFICIAL COUNTY “GOLDEN ROD” (Gold or Yellow Colored) ENDORSED SAMPLE Ballot that are distributed at your Polling Place, by authorized Committeepersons or Poll workers. Copies of these Officially Endorsed Candidates from the Democratic Party appear in this BLOG.

For these particular races, you want to make sure, that as a Democratic registered VOTER, that you know which candidates are ACTUALLY Democrats, or endorsed by the Democratic Party.

In the County Judge Race, We have ENDORSED BOTH Steve Tolliver and Gail Weilheimer. They are the ONLY REGISTERED DEMOCRATS on our Ballot.

For the Spring-Ford School Director Races, Region 2, that encompasses Limerick Voting Districts:

Limerick 1:  St. James United Church of Christ  321 South Limerick Road

Limerick 2: Limerick Township Building

Limerick 5: Evans Elementary School

We have Endorsed Helen Karchner.

For the Spring-Ford School Director Races, Region 3, that encompasses the Remaining Voting Districts in our Area:

Limerick 3: Linfield Fire Company

Limerick 4: Brooke Elementary School  

BOTH Royersford Districts 1 and 2    

Spring City                     

We have Endorsed BOTH Joe Ciresi and Tom DiBello.

The Local Democratic Party put aside conventional politics, and endorsed the BEST QUALIFIED candidates, regardless as to how they are politically registered.

I urge you to take a few minutes on Tuesday, I promise there will not be long lines, to cast your vote for these extremely well qualified candidates.

Please note that in this BLOG, I have posted Limerick, & Royersford Sample Endorsement Ballots. Please feel free to PRINT your particular Ballot for your Polling Location as noted above, and feel free to bring them with you to the Polls on Tuesday, May 21st. Polls are Open from 7am - 8pm.
