Sultana Vows Write-in Campaign, But DSA Investigating Her Treatment of Staff and Volunteers

Former Easton City Council member Taiba Sultana wanted to primary incumbent State Senator Lisa Boscola, but her nomination petition was rejected by Commonwealth Court Judge Anne Covey. The reason for this rejection is that she failed to tell the public exactly what she does for a living, Judge Covey's decision was affirmed by the Pa. Supreme Court. After being rebuffed by two courts, a normal person would sail off into the sunset.  But as we all know, nothing about Sultana is normal. Yesterday, she announced her candidacy as a write-in candidate, and oh yeah, she wants money. 

Here's her latest text bomb:

"Bernard, While Seniors and working families are struggling with the cost of living.

The political establishment spent thousands to remove my name from the ballot.

But they can’t take away your vote.

WRITE-IN 𝐓𝐚𝐢𝐛𝐚 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐚.

It’s time for better wages, tax relief for seniors, healthcare for all, and affordable housing."

When she talks about better wages and helping working families, she probably should start with the people who were working on her campaign. In fact, the local Democratic Socialists of America has asked its members pause any work for her while they investigate allegations involving "her treatment of both paid staff and volunteers while the campaign was active."

Here's what a member sent me yesterday (it is a little unclear unless you expand it).
