Letter: Nothing but lies from Eric Roe

To The Editor, In this election season, we’ve been inundated with lies from both parties at the top of the ticket. I had hoped that this local campaign would have been run on the issues, but that has not been the case. Today I am calling out my opponent Eric Roe for blatantly and repeatedly lying about my positions. I have gone on record in newspapers as well as on my Facebook posts that I DID NOT support...

Endorsements: Costello, Hartman & Meehan

Arguably, this is the most acrimonious campaign season in recent history, making it complicated to sort the fact from fiction and figure out who to support in this year’s local Congressional races. We feel your pain. Our email boxes are constantly filled with breathless pronouncements with whatever counts for talking points in each of these races from both the campaigns, parties and third party groups...

Letter: Kampf has been a leader in creating jobs

To The Editor, If you watch enough television you will see that every candidate talks about how they will help create jobs. But lost in all those ads is the fact that there is one man who has actually done just that: State Representative Warren Kampf. Warren Kampf doesn’t just talk about supporting job creators. I’ve seen him with them, listen to them and then fight for the things they need to...

Letter: Republicans, you own this

To The Editor, Donald Trump and Secretary Hillary Clinton faced off their final debate, and once again Mr. Trump found new ways to embarrass the Republican Party – and those in the Chester County Republican Committee and their candidates who have continued to endorse him.      Send article as PDF   

Letter: ‘Lesser of two evils’ argument is wrong, Clinton is an easy pick

To The Editor, A grab-bag of popular phrases is making the rounds this election season; and it really puzzles me. Two statements you hear: “I don’t like either candidate.” “I guess I’ll vote for the lesser of two evils.” First, the “I don’t like either candidate” lament. It’s good to remind ourselves here that we’re electing a president – not a roommate. I say look closely at...

Endorsements: Pat Toomey for U.S. Senate

If you’ve been watching your TV of late, you’ve seen two portrayals of U.S. Senate Candidates Pat Toomey (R) and Katie McGinty (D) — and can’t be blamed if you think them both corrupt and owned by special interests. The campaign ads are cartoonish attempts to massively exaggerate the flaws of both candidates, in both cases bordering on downright dishonest. The truth is, as is usually the case,...
