Barletta's Victory in Hazleton

Barletta essentially ran unopposed and picked up sizable percentages in an extremely low turnout. With well-over 18,000 voting-aged residents, about 2,900 bothered to stumble into the polls and vote in the Mayoral "contest".

The best report we've seen on this is in John Micek's Capital Ideas (scroll down -- it is the very last item in the column). A perfect tribute to Hazleton's "source of all truth".

PA Bar Launches PA Vote Smart for Judicial Races

Offering links to the websites of judicial candidates -- statewide and local -- as well as to judicial evaluations of the candidates, the Pennsylvania Bar Association has launched PA Vote Smart. Unfortunately, the links to the judicial evaluations are fubar. Someone typed in slashes facing the wrong way and linking to the wrong page.

Hopefully, they will figure it out and get it fixed.

In the meantime, you can get the statewide candidate evaluations here.
