Six reasons to vote Luke Ravenstahl out of office

  1. “After three years as mayor, he has yet to articulate a vision for the future.”
  2. “He does not have a reputation for working with the state legislative delegation.”
  3. “He needs to put some distance between himself and the party machine, to generate independent thinking for Pittsburgh‘s growth and progress.”
  4. “ethical lapses after taking office upon the death of Bob O’Connor”
  5. “his service as mayor remains a work in progress”
  6. “It is incumbent on the mayor to assemble more top talent on the city’s behalf”
Of course, as you probably know by now, this comes from the Post-Gazette editorial board, who asks you to vote FOR Ravenstahl.  Irresponsible.  I would be embarrassed to be affiliated with the P-G today.

    Judge Jack Panella Hosts Meet & Greet to Fundraise for November’s General Election

    Philadelphia, PA October 19, 2009 – Judge Jack Panella is hosting a meet and greet at The Northbowl Lanes on Thursday, October 22nd from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
    Jack Panella is the Democratic nominee for the office of Justice of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.

    With a remarkable reputation for making courts open and accountable, and over 18 years of experience in judging civil, criminal, and family law cases , Judge Panella remains the only judge in the history of Pennsylvania to serve as both the Chair of the Judicial Conduct Board and President Judge of the Court of Judicial Discipline. He has advocated for victims of sexual and physical violence by taking part in non-profit organizations, has maintained a strong dedication to ethical standards and reform, and will always have a strong commitment to the community. “Nothing is more important to me than the safety of our communities,” Judge Panella said.

    “As a candidate that has always stood up for the rights of working families”, Judge Panella has received several group endorsements including the Pennsylvania SEIU, the Pennsylvania State Building and Construction Trades Council, and the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO.

    With the election quickly approaching, Judge Panella asks “for your continued efforts” and promises to “make all of you proud by working tirelessly” to get his message across to as many people as possible. With nearly 1/3 of the government centered on this upcoming race, it will indefinitely play a key role in the future of the government.

    Those interested in supporting the Democratic Party are encouraged to get to know Judge Panella over an open bar Happy Hour this Thursday.
