Over at Slag Heap, Chris Potter wrote a piece about Tonya Payne’s quixotic write-in campaign and the resulting challenge to her status as chair of the City Democratic Committee. (Readers may recall that voters in city council district 6 chose to replace her with P2PAC-endorsed candidate Daniel Lavelle.) In the Spring, Tonya Payne (illegally) used…

One example taken earlier in the year (Kevin Acklin used this particular example in the second mayoral debate, back in October): a trashcan behind the Homewood-Brushton YMCA labeled “Bloomfield”.

I had a request to produce a map that’s similar to the last post, but to look at how Ravenstahl’s vote % changed from the primary election to the general election. This first map (a reproduction from the last post) shows how Ravenstahl performed in this election versus how he performed in the 2007 general…
Ravenstahl weakening? With map
| November 8, 2009 | Posted by Race for PGH under 2009, Pittsburgh, Politics |
There’s been a little back and forth over whether the mayoral results show that Ravenstahl has weakened. The argument that Luke 55% showing was something to be embarrassed by was made in the MSM by Jon Delano and Rich Lord. Ravenstahl supporters point to Luke winning every city ward, as evidence of broad-based support. Potter says that it…

Pigs Fly! and other unexpected news

Matt H has been called quite a few names from many around the burghosphere (including by me!) Mostly, they centered around his role as the lone apologist for the mayor on the interwebs. That’s why his endorsement slate is probably going to catch quite a few people by surprise: Mayor, City of Pittsburgh: Kevin Acklin There are…
