Pinsley Drops Out of Congressional Race, Will Seek State Senate Seat Instead

Lehigh County Controller Mark Pinsley, who was one of seven candidates seeking the Democratic nomination for the Pa 7 Congressional seat, has dropped out of the race. He's now running for the state senate instead. He's claiming he's the strongest possible candidate to take on incumbent Jarrett Coleman.

I'd say he's the weakest and has immeasurably hurt himself by abandoning one race to seek what he perceives to be a lower hanging fruit.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. Those who can't do or teach, run for office. It's difficult to respect government when people like Pinsley are part of it.

No surprise from this disgraceful POS- he's just another Lehigh County radical, always on the lookout for his next gig.

Shupe will be next, then Gonzales, then McClure, then CoD. The Carpetbagger and the Borking Boob will duke it out on the ballot.

He's Lehigh County's version of Zrinski.

He just needs to go away! Far away! He is just ridiculous. He pretty much contributes nothing of value to society. It seems like he just likes the limelight.

Leave teachers out of it!

Let’s please remember - “those who can, do” probably do whatever they do because they were taught it by someone!

Bernie I lost count, but isn't this something like 8 different offices he's run for in 10yrs? Maybe he really should go away.

Also, Ron Beitler is doing some great reporting on what's going on in Lehigh County, you may want to start commenting as well. Based on his initial actions, God help us if that maroon gets elected governor.

I found it to be quite ironic that it took him three (3) years to realize that the Federal Government wasn't paying rent for the Office of Homeland Security. He is a leftwing lunatic and should never be voted into an elective position again.

He is a very strange person. Something is just really off about him. I have no idea how he ever wins any public office.
