The Philadelphia general election is on November 7, and here’s an opportunity for West Philly residents to meet some of the Democratic candidates, including Larry Krasner, Philadephia District Attorney. A Democratic Candidates’ Night, organized by the 27th Ward Democratic Committee, will be held Thursday, Sept. 14, at University of the Sciences (Rosenberger Hall, 600 S. 43rd St).
The following candidates will also participate in the forum:
Carolyn Nichols, PA Superior Court
Vikki Kristiansson, PA Court of Common Pleas
Rebecca Rhynhart, City Controller
Ellen Ceisler, PA Commonwealth Court
Maria McLaughlin, PA Superior Court
One of the issues to be discussed at the meeting is gerrymandering, which is a big issue in Pennsylvania.
Members of the public are invited and encouraged to bring their questions and concerns.
The event begins at 7:00 p.m.

1) It is the general election on November 7; the primary has already happened.
2) Thus, Larry Krasner, though winning the primary, has not been elected to office (he is a candidate for district attorney in the November 7 general election).

Too bad that in Philly we have more of the same – more Democrats in power, more poverty, more corruption, more waste, more stupid lawn signs with slogans, more filthy streets, more taxes, arrested illegals released back on the streets in violation of federal law. Republicans may not be any better but Democrats have been a disaster for our city.
