Taking the Next Step: Getting into Politics - a Basic Guide

The state site will have the state candidates. As far as local, that is up to the county. You could send them an e-mail or call them and ask them about posting the slate.

EDIT: Here's the info for MontCo: http://voterservices.montcopa.org/vo...59,q,70169.asp


Also, here's a more generic search for people to find their slate: http://www.smartvoter.org/

Check with your county election office. They may have it online or available at the courthouse.

Well a week until election day. I spent the last 2 days going door to door handing out info sheets about me. I have about 90 more houses to hit, I'll try to take care of that tonight.

Just wanted to say Good Luck to anyone running.

I have handed out literally hundreds of flyers, my fellow GOP members have done so in assigned areas. I sent out hundreds of letters to female Dems with good voting records asking them to vote for me. I will be the only female constable in Lower Bucks County. There are female deputy constables.. I think 4.
My donations for this election were over the top, I worked hard to win so that those who believed in me are not let down.
Tomorrow I will be surfing the various polling places, and my daughter is working the machines and my husband is local committee man so he'll be there all day as well. My oldest son is helping a few hours before he heads off to work.
I hate predictions, but I do believe I have done everything honorable to win.

Awesome, Lady B!



Tomorrow is the big day, folks! It's time to dance. All of that hard work comes down to tomorrow...knocking on doors, handing out fliers, making/taking phone calls, kissing babies.

Best wishes to all of you PAFOA folks who are trying to make a difference in your towns. Stand at those polls from open to close. Have friends man each one where you can't be. Greet everyone with a smile and thank them for voting.


Go get 'em!



**If anyone is in Grove City tomorrow, feel free to say hi! I'll be at the Masonic Hall all day.

Good luck to all you that are running. We really need some good people to help steer this out of control ship.

Just to reitterate what others have said, Good luck to all those running. I'll be at our local American Legion and my son's girlfriend and my daughter will be at our other polling place in Crafton. Look forward to hearing everyone's results later tonight and tomorrow.

One more thing, Thanks for stepping up and trying to make a difference.

Well...

I DID IT!

Re-elected, baby!

Yeah, I was unopposed, but everything went well. I nearly froze off my butt, but it was worth it. I talked with lots of constituents and cruised to victory!


I hope everyone else was successful!


For those interested in following the races, here are the state results:
