Lebo: 42nd District Campaigns Swing into Action

Yard signs for Matt Smith (Dem) and Mark Harris (Rep) started popping up in Mt. Lebanon this week as the race for the 42nd district seat in Harrisburg, currently occupied by Tom Stevenson, got underway.

So far, I've also seen television ads for Harris and for the incumbent.

The Post-Gazette ran this summary of the candidates.

The 42nd race is interesting, but it does NOT need to be 'complete' -- yet -- at this time. An INDEPENDENT could still enter the race, either as a protest vote, or as a viable candidate -- if there is such a person in the district willing to take on the challenge.

Russ Diamond is running for GOV. as an Independent and getting a person to run for the 42nd House Seat as an Independent would be a nice boost as obtaining signatures then and there would count for both.

Let me know if you're interested... 412 298 3432.

This is the year to do it as there are many in Harrisburg who are going to be moved to the private sector, finally.

And as for the 42nd, the 42nd STATE SENATE seat, not 42nd HOUSE District, is near and includes DORMONT and Balwin Township and Scott, etc. I'm getting signatures to get on the ballot for that race now.

And, the best day to get signatures to get onto the November ballot is the Primary Day, a couple of weeks away, on a Tuesday in May.
