ABOUT THIS ELECTION WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PRIMARY AND A GENERAL ELECTION? A primary election is when voters select who will be a political party’s candidate for each office that is up for election in November. Your primary election ballot will only list candidates who are running in the party you are registered in – for example, registered Democrats can only vote for Democratic candidates – though you can write in another candidate for each office. The candidate for each office with the most votes from each party will appear on the general election ballot on November 3. 2 In some districts, the primary is the deciding election, as there may be no opponents from another party running in the general election. In general elections, everyone can vote for any candidate, no matter their party (or lack of party) affiliation. Whoever wins will hold office starting in January of the following year. IS THIS ELECTION A GENERAL OR PRIMARY ELECTION? The June 2, 2020 Pennsylvania election is a primary election. This election determines who will represent each political party in the November 3 general election, which determines who will take office starting in January 2021. WHAT POSITIONS ARE WE VOTING FOR IN THE UPCOMING PRIMARY ELECTION? Each voter will get to vote on June 2 for one candidate from their party for each of the following offices: United States President United States Representative State Senator (only in some State Senate districts) State Representative State Attorney General State Auditor General State Treasurer National Convention Delegates WHO’S ON MY BALLOT? Get your sample ballot at bit.ly/ACballot. Select your city name, ward number, and district number. [Find your ward/district numbers by using the Pennsylvania polling place webpage link on this page or by calling (412) 350-4510. The first line of your usual polling place address contains your ward and district info. (Ex.: “Polling Place Address for PITTSBURGH 09 06” = Ward 9, District 6).] Select search. You can then select the “View Ballot” box for your party. NEED TO KNOW YOUR POLLING PLACE? In response to the pandemic and the need for social distancing, Allegheny County’s Board of Elections may have changed your polling place for this election. They will be sending letters to registered voters letting them know where their new polling location is in case they wish to vote in person. However, they are strongly encouraging all voters to vote by mail this election. WONDERING HOW TO USE THE NEW VOTING MACHINES? To improve election security, starting with this election Pennsylvania will be using paper ballots which will be electronically-verified. There are two types of polling machines that will be in use in Allegheny County. You will either mark your ballot by hand with a pencil then scan to confirm your vote OR mark an electronic ballot which will then print out a paper copy of your vote for confirmation. Poll workers will show you how to use the machine. 3 ELECTED OFFICES AND RESPONSIBILITIES FEDERAL President of the United States Term Length: 4 Years Number of Terms Allowed: 2 Cabinet, Ambassador, and Judicial Appointments: The president nominates leaders of executive branch offices (e.g. Department of Agriculture, Department of Labor, etc.), ambassadors, justices of the federal courts and Supreme Court, and “all other Officers of the United States.” These nominations are subject to the approval of the U.S. Senate. Military: Under the Constitution, the president is the commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, as well as the National Guard. The president does not have the power to declare war (that was left for Congress). Laws: As the head of the executive branch of the federal government, the president is responsible for ensuring that all the nation’s laws are “faithfully executed” by the various departments of the executive branch. The President has the power to negotiate, sign, and veto legislation enacted by Congress but cannot initiate legislation. The president can, however, make changes to federal policy and how federal laws are implemented through the use of signing statements, executive orders, memoranda, and administrative proposals. Treaties and Foreign Policy: The president sets the foreign policy of the United States and in that regard has the authority, “by and with the consent of the Senate” (as indicated by the concurrence of two-thirds of the senators present), to make treaties with other countries.

    2020 PA Primary Developments & Notes Republican PA GOP House and Senate Goals in November General Election: Although there are 17 Democratic-held seats in districts that Trump won, the release specifically pinpointed House Districts 33, 55, 72, and 123 as “just a few targets for Republicans” in the upcoming election. House Minority Leader Frank Dermody (D-Allegheny) represents the least Trump friendly district of those four targets, with the president carrying the 33rd state House District by 5 points over Sec. Hillary Clinton in 2016, according to DailyKos. Dermody’s closest reelection bid since the last two presidential elections was in 2014 when he fended off Republican Sean Watson by 6 points, according to Ballotpedia. Dermody is slated to face Carrie DelRosso, an Oakmont Borough Councilmember and businesswoman, for the seat in the fall. State Rep. Frank Burns (D-Cambria) represents the most Trump friendly district of the four targets with Trump winning the 72nd state House District by 43 points over Clinton in 2016. Burns’ closest reelection bid since the past two presidential elections was in 2018 when he edged out Republican Gerald Carnicella by 5 points, according to Ballotpedia. Burns will face Republican Howard Terndrup for his reelection bid in November. State Rep. Joe Petrarca’s (D-Westmoreland) 55th state House District is also very favorable to Trump with the president carrying his district by 33 points in 2016, according to DailyKos. Petrarca ran unopposed in 2018 and his closest reelection bid since the past two presidential elections was in 2012 when he defeated Republican John Hauser, although his 2016 victory over Republican Michael Geiselhart was a 13 point win, according to Ballotpedia.

  • April 21, 2020 Secretary Teresa Miller Pennsylvania Department Of
    April 21, 2020 Secretary Teresa Miller Pennsylvania Department of Human Services 625 Forster Street Harrisburg, PA 17120 Dear Secretary Miller, Re: Safe Food Purchasing Options for SNAP Recipients As legislators, we understand the economic precariousness of our constituents since the onset of the COVID-19 outbreaks and that it has increased the need for people to access the SNAP benefits program to ensure food security. We understand the need for SNAP recipients to have safe access to groceries which would include access to online grocery shopping and delivery services. More than one-third of SNAP households include a family member who is an older adult or someone with a disability and many of these families rely on ride-sharing or public transportation options to go grocery shopping. Leaving their homes to make in-person payments or even using neighborhood volunteer-based buddy systems further increases the risk of contracting COVID-19 for an already at-risk population. We support DHS in submitting a waiver that allows SNAP benefit users to complete online grocery orders (and allow for home delivery service) so that they may adhere to the COVID-19 response guidelines outlined by the state government. This waiver will be a good start to supporting our most vulnerable population. Additionally, we encourage you to look ahead to broadening the options and abilities for using and accepting SNAP benefits. From across the Commonwealth, we hear concerns about the safety and security of local food growers and producers who keep our food supply safe and steady and the financial security of these industries that are considered essential.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

  • Copy of Letter to Administration Re Frack Public Health Study (002).Docx
    March 17th, 2021 The Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 508 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, PA 17120 RE: Request for Action Dear Governor Wolf, Thank you for your recent support of the Delaware River Basin Commission’s efforts to protect our natural resources and drinking water supply. Please consider this correspondence as a formal request for your immediate action in response to the ongoing harm to the public’s health and well-being due to hydraulic fracturing. On March 4, 2021, the Environmental Health News published the results of an illuminating investigation that links hydraulic fracturing operations and exposure to toxic chemicals. This pilot study included five families residing in Westmoreland and Washington Counties, all living within miles of multiple hydraulic fracturing wells, pipelines, and compressor stations. Each family was monitored over 9 weeks through scientific data collection of urine, air, and water sampling. These samples were then analyzed using the best available technology to look for forty of the most common chemicals found in the emissions from fracking sites. The initial outcomes are alarming in terms of the effects on the long-term health and safety of these residents. Benzene and butylcyclohexane were among the chemicals found in both the drinking water and air samples. Breakdown products for the chemicals ethylbenzene, styrene, and toluene were found in the bodies of children living near fracking operations. For example, a nine-year-old participant showed levels of these harmful chemicals up to ninety-one times as high as the average American and substantially higher than levels seen in the average adult cigarette smoker.
