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.
How would he know? Obviously there were a significant number of write-ins, but he was not the only person seeking write-ins on the Democratic side.
ReplyDeleteI doubt very much that Democrats would write in Emrick, if that is what you are suggesting. He is nastyand arrogantto his own Republicans, to say nothing of Democrats.
ReplyDeleteEmrick supporters were out in force attempting to get Dem's to write his name in. There were those who were duped into doing so but most people brushed off that offensive idea. It's a dirty trick and indicative of what Emrick is..a reclusive, do as your told, tool of the R party.
ReplyDeleteGG stumbled on this one. Who was his campaign manager?
ReplyDeleteLooks like nearly 600 votes for Mattei and less than 300 Dem's were duped into writing Emrick in as a Democrat. No such Dem support will be forthcoming for Joe in November.
ReplyDeleteEmrick is the worst- arrogant, lazy, and totally useless. You would think this piece of garbage would appreciate the fact that our reps. are the 2nd highest paid in the country!
ReplyDeleteSo instead the Dems were duped into voting for Mattei also Republican formerly with no party affiliation and a terrible voter.
ReplyDeleteEmrick may be in for a surprise. This guy is no slouch.
ReplyDeleteI am a republican and intend to vote for Mattei. Joe Emrick is a slug, kind of like a slough on tree. He has done NOTHING in Harrisburg, IS NOT available and when he is acts like your bothering him and could care less about people's problems. Ask anyone first hand. This guy is a political douchebag. An arrogant jerk that should be an elected official as he isn't to serve the people but he thinks he is there to serve himself and the community is a bother to him. Send this lazy former school teacher to the employment line to get a real job and bring back a Rich Grucela who cared about the regular folks- This lazy douche has got to go-
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your thoughts on "Do Nothing Joe"
ReplyDeleteAnon 9:15 I couldn't agree more- Joe Emrick is an arrogant, lazy pig at the trough. I'm surprised the Dems couldn't find someone- anyone, with a decent work ethic to run against this piece of crap. And please, not another "1 vote" Joe Capozzolo !! That being said, I'll be, and will encourage others to vote for Mattei !!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's up to Nazareth now. Bangor people think this one time football hero is the be all and end all. Drinking contaminated quarry water will do that to the denizens. Vote the bum out..please!
ReplyDeleteEmrick is done hopefully. He's as bad if not worse than Mario Scavello.
