During an intermission between Northampton County Council committee hearings yesterday, Controller Steve Barron told a reporter that he has decided against running for county executive. Now that incumbent John Stoffa has committed to a reelection bid, Barron refuses to oppose his fellow Democrat.Barron makes an effort to be inclusive and has demonstrated a willingness to work with everyone during his first year in elected office. He represents the future of Northampton County government. It's pretty bright if Steve remains involved.

MANCRUSH ALERT!!!!MANCRUSH ALERT!!!!!
steve's a good guy with a bright future. hope he stays around.
but....can he survive the vitriol of joe long?
Class act, even if he is on the wrong side of the aisle!
When they Love Stoffa you love them..When they hate Stoffa you hate them. See a trend here?
would've voted him. i wonder if he felt pressure to drop out. good guy there!!!!!!!!!!!
Steve needs to finish his term and garner a second term in order to have a good feel for county government. He has all the right intentions. Just hope the toxic environment of the Courthouse doesn't get to him.
Steve is an awesome guy ! He has all the right tools, and he will be great ! He is young. Barely 30 and is feeling his way through some things, but he has a bright future. He is very vulnerable politically right now because he has no money and nobody knows who he is. With the Controller salary set to rise to 125K per year there will be lots of competition for hte job.
