Judicial Candidates Spoke to Voters in

Mercer County

Statewide Judicial Candidates visited the Shenango Valley on Sunday February 26.

Judges enjoyed speaking individually to people and answering questions from those in attendance.   

Candidates attending such events gives each of us the ability to be more informed voters. Meeting candidates personally gives you a true sense of their personality, their platforms and a read on the their core beliefs. Judicial candidates spoke with voters regarding issues such as Union support, Education, Equality, Healthcare, and Criminal Justice. It is important to maintain a Democratic perspective in our courts now more than ever.

Opportunities such as this are very rare for us in Western Pennsylvania. If you were not in attendance, please reach out to others to hear their impressions of the candidates. Each of the judges were very pleased with the reception and the willingness for our county to collect signatures for them. Each Judge expressed, because of our efforts, their eagerness to returning to Western PA!  Keep an eye and ear out for the possibility of another forum.  You don't want to miss it!

March 11, 2017 is our next DWMC meeting. All of our local candidates have been invited to speak and briefly answer questions. An informed voter elects candidates who will work for all people and their concerns.

Mark your calendars to attend the March 11 DWMC meeting! 

See you then!

Remember this date November 6, 2018. That's the date on which 33 senate seats, all 435 seats in the House of Representatives, and 14 governorships will be up for re-election. Put it on your calendar now and be prepared to be an informed voter.

 If you are worried, concerned, angry, disappointed about the direction the government is going this is the most effective way to make a change, stop complaining and start planning. Remember the president is only one cog in the government machine, and you can make effective change through voting for your local and state representatives, this is the check that can balance this situation. SHARE OR COPY and PASTE! TIME TO DO SOMETHING!!

Gerrymandering

Gerrymandering: Pennsylvania Issues

2:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 18, 2017

Community Library of the Shenango Valley

 

Last year our chapter of The League of Women Voters presented a program on gerrymandering that featured Dr. Shannon Smithey of Westminster College.  Her informative program provided an historic overview of gerrymandering and how gerrymandering impacts the political process.  

This year we continue to investigate gerrymandering with program speaker, Tony Crocamo, of Fair Districts PA.  Fair Districts PA is a nonpartisan coalition with leadership from Common Cause PA and the League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania that supports creating an independent commission to ensure transparent, impartial, and fair districting in our state. Our programs are free and open to the public.  Refreshments will be served.
