Letter: Morely would bring integrity back to district justice post
To The Editor,
Six years ago I supported Matthew Seavey for District Judge, however I am now supporting Nicole Morley at the May 19, 2015 Election. We need to bring “INTREGRITY” and “TRUST” back to District Court 15-4-04 and I know Nicole Morley is the right person for that job.

Letter: Offended by attacks on Seavey
To The Editor:
I am terribly offended by Mike Mooney’s letter (April 29) to the editor regarding the record of Matthew Seavey during his five years as District Justice. Whatever his sources may be, neither he nor they have a clue about the job Seavey has done or they would be supporting him instead of implying he is corrupt. The fact is, he has operated his office with integrity and honor. Above...
Letter: Morley is best choice for district justice
To The Editor,
Often over the years when speaking with voters and asking them to vote for a particular candidate, I will hear something like this, “They may be a good person, but once they get in office…… they all go bad.” While I don’t necessarily agree with “….they ALL go bad.” I think there is something to be said for the old saying “Absolute power corrupts...

Letter: Supports Morley for District Justice
To The Editor,
I write in support of Nicole Morley for Magisterial District Judge. I have known Nicole for over 10 years and even had the pleasure working with her at the Chester County District Attorney’s Office.
