Tiburcio Nomination Petition for Pa. State Rep Under Siege

Locally, two nomination petitions for state senate and the state house have been challenged. The objections to Taiba Sultana's quest for the Pa State Senate are discussed above. This post is about the challenge to Ana Tiburcio's attempt to make the ballot as a Democratic candidate for the 22d legislative district in Allentown. Tiburcio was required to obtain 300 signatures from Democrats who live and vote in her district. Her petition contains 578 signatures, but papers filed by Attorney Elliott Love contends that 317 of them are invalid. 

Love's suit was filed on behalf of Jessica Lee Ortiz and Paulette Hunter, who are obviously doing Ce-Ce Gerlach's dirty work for her. 

In addition to challenging the validity of signatures, Attorney Love contends that several of the circulator affidavits are defective. 

Among those who circulated Tiburcio's petition are State Reps. Michael Schlossberg, Steve Samuelson and Allentown Mayor Matt Tuerk.

Well, we know samelson didn't circulate a petition. He hasn't moved that much in 30 years.

The 3 stooges: Schlossberg, Samuelson & Tuerk.

Ok so CeCe is awful, agreed. But at least she ran, and wasn’t hand-picked by the Elites of the Democratic Party and thrust upon the electorate.

So in my opinion the dirty work was done by Schlossberg, Mann, and all the others.

Cece is not connected to the challenge. I act on my own behalf. For the record

For the record, there is little doubt in my mind that you are acting on her behalf. Very few people are going to invest their time going through nomination petitions and checking voter status unless associated with an opposing campaign.
