Alternative Candidates For Auditor General
By Bob Small
Tim Defoors is running for re-election as Pennsylvania Auditor general and, based on his record, should win.
His Democrat opponent is Malcolm Kenyatta.
There are three alternative candidates on the ballot.
The American Solidarity Party has selected its state coordinatorm Eric Anton, of Dauphin County. He is their only candidate on the PA state-wide ballot.
The Constitution Party is putting forward Alan (Bob) Goodrich a frequent candidate.
He is the principal of Wesley Academy in the Knoxville, Pa. A graduate of West Point, he has twice been elected as a supervisor in Osceola Township. He has a wife and seven children.
One of his main philosophies is “We need to get back to the way the Constitution was written, and follow it.” He stated that the Auditor General’s office would be better served, considering that most of the government is run by one of the two major parties, if a third party person should fill the job.
Then there’s the Libertarian candidate, Reese Smith who has the radical idea to “actually audit the state!”
“only .17 percent of the audits look at the State Government,” he says.”that equates to roughly 20 since the start of 2020.”
Reece has a 2024 Bachelor’s Degree from Allegheny College this year.
One solution, he has to the problem of the high cost of college is “we need to stop subsidizing college, as it just leads to colleges raising their prices even higher.”
Reese Smith will be 21 on Election day.
“I started attending my local school board meetings in the 10th grade, and I quickly began to inform my fellow students about actions taken by the board and school administrators,” he says.
Obviously a subversive.
