Vote NO for Luzerne County Home Rule on November 2nd!

Opposition to the written structure of government for Luzerne County is everywhere!

The Luzerne County Home Rule Study Commission has failed the citizens of Luzerne County.
It is a big disappointment.

Power and control are the intentions of Chairman Jim Haggerty and his Home Rule Study Buddies.

NUMBER 11 on the ballot and zero name recognition!

Are the odds against me?
I believe I am the best choice for Republican State Committee.

Here are some burning questions from one voter:

What is your position on the PA GOP endorsing candidates? Do you believe that the State committee should vote for the GOP to endorse candidates or do you believe that the party should not endorse until the people have voted in the primary?

My answer:

I will do my best to voice my opinion in person at the meetings.

It is difficult to fight tradition. I understand that "to NOT endorse" is viewed as a failure by the GOP. I believe the process can discourage individuals to not run for office.

The Primary should be a time for all candidates (rich or poor) to step up, voice their ideas, concerns, solutions and questions. Politics should not be based on your position in life: poor, middle class, or rich. More people struggle everyday to survive. There are wealthy individuals who do not step up for the same reasons: Personal attacks and groups who want "favors". It will take a long time to change this thinking.


Vote for me to represent Luzerne County on May 18th!

I am a Republican candidate for State Committee.
I am number 11 on the ballot.

I am providing this information to inform the public about my concerns.


Reason for Running
I hope to encourage more citizens to vote and become involved with the political process. I want to restore confidence in our local government leadership.I want to address the issue of the local corruption. The citizens of this county cannot afford to pay for abuse of the system. Property owners pay taxes in good faith. Wasteful spending and deception cannot continue. I am an advocate for the elderly and for those who cannot represent themselves. I was elected Inspector of Elections and Constable for Hazleton City Ward 1. I actively write letters printed in our newspapers to talk about local issues. Vote for me on May 18Th.
