Who Is Frank Hesch?

After filing his nomination petitions on Tuesday, Frank Hesch III today formally announced his candidacy for one of five at-large Northampton County Council seats. He filed close to double the required number of petition signatures.

Hesch is a lifelong resident of Northampton County. He graduated from Northampton Area High School and received a Bachelor of Arts in Management from Moravian College. He promises to bring "a business and commonsense approach to County government.”

“This is a great area in which to grow up, work and raise a family,” Hesch said. “I want to make sure it stays that way. I want to give back to the place I am proud to call home.”

Hesch is Operations Manager for his family’s automotive business. Before getting involved with his family’s business, Hesch built a client-centered financial planning practice as an Accredited Wealth Management Advisor.

He is a Republican.

  2. There are 16 candidates. Each of them filed reams of petitions. Some of those petitions are only partially filled.

    I was going to count each one of them and report it, but it's really too time-consuming. Instead, I am going to go back and look at who circulated. That way you can get a rough idea of where their support is coming from. Sound good?

  7. "finally a younger life long resident with skills running for office."

    Yeah, it worked so well with the crew elected in 2009. We almost lost Gracedale and we got an uneeded overproced building.

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.
