Senate Candidates Attending King Of Prussia Meet And Greet

Senate Candidates Attending King Of Prussia Meet And Greet — Candidates for Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senate seat up for election in 2018 will be attending a meet and greet Oct. 4 at the King of Prussia Volunteer Fire Co., 170 Allendale Road, King of Prussia, Pa. 19406.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the event starts a half hour later. It’s sponsored by 1180Am WYFL, and organized by Citizens for Liberty and the Valley Forge Patriots.

Attending will be state 39th District Sate Rep. Rick Saccone, and businessman Jeff Bartos,  who will be competing in the Republican primary; and Dale Kerns Jr. of Delaware County, who will be running as a Libertarian.

Also committed to attend is Andrew Shecktor, a Berwick councilman who has ended his Senate bid to instead run for the 11th District congressional seat being vacated by Republican Lou Barletta.

Barletta is launching a Senate bid of his own. He is unavailable for the Oct. 4 event but has said he will address the groups at a later time.

Incumbent Democrat Bob Casey was invited to speak but declined.

Bobby Lawrence Explains His Side

Bobby Lawrence Explains His Side — An article that appeared on the left-wing, Canadian-hosted website BlastingNews.com is accusing Pennsylvania U.S. Senate Candidate Bobby Lawrence of abusing a staffer by leaving a nasty message on her answering machine.

There is another side that was omitted, however.

Lawrence notes that the person, Tania Burgess, was not a staffer or employee of his campaign but affiliated with America First Grassroots.

Lawrence and Ms. Burgess are supporters of Donald Trump, and Ms. Burgess offered to help Lawrence with his Aug. 26 Senate kickoff event in Greencastle. 

The event was scheduled and Ms. Burgess then claimed ownership of it, Lawrence says. He says she attempted to exert undue control and prominent persons whom Lawrence had expected to join him pulled out. He also feared Ms. Burgess’ actions would cause others  to quit the event.

So that explains the message which can be heard here.

He was not some big bully threatening some mild volunteer staffer as the article implies.

And how would a left-wing publication get the private voice mail of a proclaimed Trump supporter anyway?

Information about Lawrence, a Republican, can be found here.

Jeff Bartos Bob Asher Connection

Jeff Bartos Bob Asher Connection — Among the nine Republicans (so far) seeking the nomination to take on Sen. Bob Casey Jr. — oh has he shamed his father — is well-connected businessman Jeff Bartos.

Bartos, who was division president for Toll Brothers and ran North American operations of Mark Group’s global energy efficiency business, has the seal of approval from PA Future Fund.

That’s three strikes there.

PA Future Fund is a political action committee chaired by Bob Asher, who we will refrain from describing on the “if you can’t say anything nice” principle.

OK, we will note he backed John Kasich in a desperate last minute attempt to keep Donald Trump from getting the nomination last year.

Bartos does not seem to be the guy we want in our battle against special interests.

Tom Cotton Backs Paul Mango For Pa. Gov.

Tom Cotton Backs Paul Mango For Pa. Gov. — Noted truth-teller Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) will be appearing with Paul Mango at a July 28 light-lunch fundraiser at AmVets Post 19 in Lancaster. Mango is among the Republicans seeking to replace Gov. “Big Bad” Wolf in  2018.

Tickets are $50. For information call Savannah at 717-779-3197.

Tom Cotton is the real deal and gives Mango a lot of credibility. Others seeking the nomination might want to reconsider pushing legislation giving strange men the right to share private spaces with little girls.

Just sayin’.
