Details

You can tell a lot about a candidate by who endorses him or her.  Homosexual group Equality PA has not only endorsed President Obama for re-election, but has endorses the three Democratic statewide candidates:  Kathleen Kane for PA Attorney General, Eugene DePasquale for PA Auditor General and Rob McCord for PA Treasurer.

According to Equality PA, ” Four of these candidates are members of the LGBT community: Jeff Dahlander (Susquehanna, Wayne, Wyoming), Chris Dietz (Dauphin), Kelly Jean McEntee (Dauphin), and Brian Sims (Philadelphia County). Pennsylvania has never had an openly gay state legislator. Ted Martin, Equality PA Executive Director, commented, “We cannot discount the impact of a member of our community at the legislative table in Harrisburg. LGBT Pennsylvanians will benefit greatly from the election of these four out candidates in November.””
