Letter: We need Kampf’s fiscal discipline
To The Editor,
We need State Representative Warren Kampf now more than ever, we need his fiscal discipline, we need his continued work to cut wasteful government spending and we need his leadership on budget priorities that match what his constituents want. While we need him now, we should all be happy that he was there for us the last two years when there was a proposal to raise the income tax by...
The Trumpocalypse hits home
Meanwhile, local candidates gather and talk issues thoughtfully
By Mike McGann, Editor, The Times
Well, that was a week to be proud of in politics, right?
As Donald Trump continues to loom over the election of down ballot candidates much as he did over Hillary Clinton during last Sunday night’s town hall forum — frankly, all it needed was slasher movie music to make it perfect — it seems likely...
Letter: Voters have a clear choice in the 158th
To the Editor,
The voters in the PA House 158th district will be choosing a new state representative on November 8th, since Chris Ross is retiring. We have been waiting for many months to see and read Republican candidate Eric Roe’s positions. Finally, his campaign published three position papers, on “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.” On Oct 2nd his Party or his handlers had...
Trump puts local candidates in a deplorable situation
No good choice for down ballot GOP candidates
By Mike McGann, Editor, The Times
Um, now what?
If you think the average American doesn’t know what to think about the tapes revealed Friday involving Donald Trump’s comments on women, imagine if you happen to a Republican appearing on the Nov. 8 ballot for Congress or the State Legislature.
I’m not going to address the actual content of the comments...

Letter: A vote for Roe
To The Editor,
Eric Roe will make an outstanding State Representative for us in the 158th Legislative District. He’s one of the hardest working men I know, and he’ll work tirelessly for the residents of the 158th in Harrisburg. He’s got the work ethic, the skill sets, the private sector experience and the professional acumen to be an effective advocate for families and seniors. He...
GOP seems to be laying groundwork for two campaigns
As Trump implodes, Republicans pivoting to save down-ballot races
By Mike McGann, Editor, The Times
As we suggested last week, the heavy firepower is hitting Chester County now — and is likely to continue right up to the election.
Already this week, we’ve seen Ted Danson in town stumping for Hillary Clinton and Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives (and former GOP Vice Presidential nominee)...

Letter: Roe is just wrong
To the Editor,
As Election Day comes closer, it’s time for all Pennsylvanians to seriously decide who they are going to vote for. The media would have us think that there are only two people running for office, but we actually have several important down-ticket votes to cast in addition to President. One of those is our Representative for State House.

Letter: Four reasons to vote for McGinty
To The Editor:
For U.S. Senate, I believe Katie McGinty is clearly the better choice this November. She understands the concerns of the people of Pennsylvania and will do a better job representing our interests. Her opponent Pat Toomey is running many TV and print ads that obscure some of his very troubling positions. It’s time to expose them.
On Social Security: Toomey has long advocated...
