Objections to Nomination Petitions Due February 21

I've told you that nomination petitions for state and federal office were due in Harrisburg on February 14.  Objections to these petitions can be filed, but that must happen no later than today. These objections must state specifically why the nomination petition is being challenged and must be served on the state elections office. 

Most (if not all) of these challenges would need to be filed in Commonwealth Court. The Court has set up a link to review objection petitions and case management orders. 

As of Monday night, no petition has been legally challenged.

    I suppose there is no point in Freeman or any of his supporters challenging Sultana's petition in the 136th. He and his team know they are going to clean her clock; plus, it's worth keeping her on the primary ballot for the comic relief she will provide during the campaign.

    Sultana is going to pull some surprises this primary. Look out, Bobby!

    "Sultana is going to pull some surprises this primary. Look out, Bobby!"

    The fact that this offspring-beating chowderhead gets ANY votes at all, in any capacity, is a surprise in and of itself.

    so yeah, I guess so.

    Will McClure send one of his minions to challenge Milou (who?) Mackenzie?

    Maybe Sultana will take what's left of her husband's $40K from his controller campaign and use that to challenge Freeman's signatures?

    Will McClure send Barron to Harrisburg to comb through petitions like he does here in the county. Nice use of a taxpayer funded job, not.

    I wonder if Pinsleys and Montero Petitions are getting challenged? Rumor is that there are issues with both their petitions.

    Tatanic is not worth worrying about…she will sink her own campaign

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.
