Election Day is fast approaching once again. This is considered an ‘off year’ election since there are no federal or state legislative races; HOWEVER, there is never an off year election! All elections are important to us and the future of our nation. On November 5th, in addition to local races, we will be voting whether to retain two PA Supreme Court justices and two Superior Court judges. We will also be voting to add another Superior Court judge to serve a 10 year term. Go here for Judges Info for General Election 2013
