VOTE on NOVEMBER 5!

On November 5, we will vote for Judges at the County and State levels. Some campaigns would want you to believe that party affiliations don't matter. After all, the law is the law, right? Keep in mind that many laws have a "judicial discretion" clause; and for those that don't, the judge still decides the outcome based on what is presented in court. Republican judges have worked out well for PA, and when the law wasn't clear, they leaned on the constitutions of both PA and the USA to ensure the correct outcome.

 Please choose Republicans for your judges on the Superior Court (Vic Stabile , Sue Gantman) and Supreme court (Ronald Castille).  They will judge based on the evidence and the law.

 Unlike Democrat Attorney General Kathleen Kane, these judges won’t make decisions based on pop-culture media and ignore the law of the land. Unlike Democrat and Supreme Court Justice Seamus McCaffery who is currently under investigation by the FBI and also caught up in a ticket fixing scandal in Philadelphia which currently has 10 Democrat judges all lined up for punishment and discipline ( THE NINE   ; SEAMUS ).

At the Washington county level we need to hire some new office managers, namely Nancy Carr (Recorder of Deeds) and Angela Carrier (Controller). We need to modernize our offices as we streamline our processes, reduce delays, and show more accountability. Simple technology would allow for more openness and it's obvious that democrats desire neither openness nor technology that Nancy and Angela can deliver.

Next, we have Peters Township Council, and we have a great team to offer. For the "at large" seat, we have attorney Meghan Jones-Rolla. If her name sounds familiar it's because she ran for council two years ago. We also have an accomplished roster of incumbents:  Gary Steigel (At Large), David Ball (District A), Monica Merrell (District B), Frank Arcuri (District C), James Berquist (District D) .

 

Finally, we have the school board candidates. There are lots of issues that should have you all highly concerned, such as deficit spending and how will Peters Township deal with the federally mandated Common Core. We are lucky that the Republican primary resulted in four interested and accomplished candidates. We have three fresh new names with prestigious degrees and they have all been involved in the Peters Township community for years. First is Jamison Hardy who has a PhD in Business Administration and who has experience on financial boards managing over $100,000,000 in assets.  Second we have Rebecca Bowman, who is a mentor, an attorney and an engineer. She has a keen interest in curriculum and academic development, and as an engineer she is uniquely qualified to champion STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math).  Finally we have attorney Lisa Anderson who has been involved with the PTA, and incumbent Sue Smith.
