Home is where the people are, not the money

Having ANY Pennsylvania politicians and in New York City at the Pennsylvania Society looking for money for their local election adds a corrosive element to our elections.  This $1000-a-plate "money primary" at the Waldorf-Astoria drowns out the voices of people who are running without the backing of corporate interests and party bosses.  The entire point of it is for the wealthy to influence things in the Keystone State.

No enthusiasm for PA Dems

I read "New Pa. Democratic Chair discusses what's needed to win back Black voters" and I am very confused.  Former Democratic Auditor General Eugene DePasquale served York County, which is only five percent Black.  Where is this expertise in courting black voters?  He says that the Democrats need to listen to black voters, then you see that Senator John Fetterman is giving $100,000 to the PA Democratic Party.

PA Dems: Push Ranked Choice Voting

Eugene DePasquale is a reminder of how broken our current voting system is.  You may remember that he lost in the general election for PA Attorney General.  One reason he lost is that there was little consensus among Democrats for their candidate in the general election.  This is a problem that ranked choice voting (RCV) solves.  In RCV, voters get to rank up a number of candidates on their ballot.

Senator Pittman: Less fundraising, more funding!

Harrisburg leaves defunded schools and public transportation systems in its wake as the budget is over two months overdue. Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Joe Pittman (R., Indiana) hosted a fundraiser in Armstrong County where attendees spent up to $10,000. State Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta (D., Philadelphia) rightly stated that this is a “slap in the damn face of every Pennsylvanian." Our school children, teachers and staff…
