A Republican Wonders Where Party Help Was In Delco
By Sharon Devaney
My take on why the Republicans lost Tuesday, from a former Democrat.
I changed parties after Obama’s first term and voted for Trump all three times mostly because I had been permanently handicapped by an illegal.
I got involved in politics after I saw Delco being invaded by greed and corruption starting in the schools. Teachers were forced to stop teaching basic math along with telling time and cursive writing.
The dumbing down of society started with the children who are now young adults. They lack common sense and feel entitled. They lack accountability, respect and discipline. This created the societal problems we have at the moment.
I personally have tried to talk to the Delaware County Republican Party about the core issues which they chose to ignore.
I even sought their endorsement last February for a county council spot.
Get it, I did not.
We have serious problems with the schools, illegal immigration and crime. Stupidity rules here. Many municipalities ban plastic shopping bags which only leads to increased pilfering and decreased customers as they only shop in these places when they are desperate.
Also, there really are perverts — often protected — in the schools and libraries.
And, yes, progressive organizations like the Savage Sisters seek to destroy neighborhoods while the GOP leadership parties.
On Tuesday, I was the minority inspector for the 6-2 and 6-3 wards in Haverford Township where the polling place is in Chestnutwold School.
Check the link. Notice it’s published by the Haverford Democrats. I couldn’t find one from the GOP.
The 6th Ward is a strong Democrat district but the Democrats with whom I interacted were kind to me all day. and respectful. They listened to my input and sympathized with my unsought appointment as a minority inspector for the two precincts
I also have high regards for Pam Lairdieson, who is the poll worker coordinator for Delco.
Pam has worked countless hours on making the election process go easier after every election and has listened to what I and other workers have to say about improving the process.
The sad thing is the last eight-plus years less than five Republicans have listened to me about the problems that have been slid like a snake into Delco.
I really could have used help yesterday. Not one Republican reached out to me when I specifically asked for help.
How is it possible that only one Republican is working is two of the largest precincts in Haverford?
Where are the Republicans?
Judging by their social media postings during the summer campaign season they are in front row seats for Phillies games, tking trips to Italy, and playing with midget Elvis Presley impersonators.
Where was I the last few years?>
Working my ass off while the Republican leadership was ghosting me
This indifference is why they lose.
Maybe it’s time to change parties.
Both sides, though, seem to want money and power more than helping the people so what difference would it make.
