Under Fire, Cory Miller Withdraws From Race For Dally's Seat

A few weeks ago, I asked "Who the hell is Cory Miller?" He was supposedly circulating nomination petitions for the vacant 138th House District held by Craig Dally, who recently was elevated to the judicial stratosphere.

Well, Cory must have stopped circulating. Democrat Joe DiGerlando, who's not running for anything, has challenged Cory's nomination petitions. Cory simply withdrew on Monday.

As a result, Northampton County Democrats have no candidate. Republican Marcia Hahn, a legislative staffer to Dally with 25 years of public service, will square off against Republican Nick Sabatine, a Wind Gap lawyer.

  1. Good Job Joe Long! What the hell happened to the 2 or 3 candidates you had for this position. So freakin glad he is leaving the Chair position.
    Bernie, who is the next chair going to be? I heard Walt Garvin and Michael Laws are running.

  2. There's another Brennan Democrat who lives in that district, would Harrisburg ever be the same with 2 at the same time?

  3. Don't underestimate Miller just because he withdrew and is a write in! He's still the nominee for the special election he just withdrew from the primary, it's basically running two races for the same seat.. I had the chance to speak with him and he seems very educated and we need a fresh young perspective he's not too young that it scares me and he's got some original ideas not too radical though! GIVE HIM A CHANCE!!

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
