PA Attorney General race

The David Freed camp put out a press release slamming Kathleen Kane for going to the Democratic Convention in Charlotte pointing out that he skipped the festivities in Tampa. 


HARRISBURG, PA – As the 2012 election cycle marks its final 9 weeks today, Kathleen Kane’s first priority after the Labor Day weekend is to jet off to sunny Charlotte to join party kingmakers at the Democratic National Convention.

Last week, during the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Cumberland County District Attorney and candidate for Attorney General, David Freed, spent the week traveling Pennsylvania, stopping in Centre County, Dauphin County, Lehigh County, Philadelphia County, Montgomery County, Luzerne County, Bradford County, Wyoming County, Sullivan County, and Lackawanna County to name a few.
This week’s schedule is very much the same as Freed travels the state, connecting with voters and activists.
“Pennsylvania voters deserve an experienced leader to represent them as the commonwealth’s chief law enforcement officer – not someone who prefers hobnobbing out-of-state with power-brokers and career politicians,” said Freed campaign manager, Tim Kelly.
Kelly continues, “Out of touch politicians are certainly not in short supply. That doesn’t mean we should elect another one as our next Attorney General.” 

This is true. I had the pleasure of meeting David Freed at the Luzerne County GOP picnic. 

He has a big hill to climb as the latest polls show Kane winning big 40-29. Not to read to much into the poll results but I think people like the idea of a woman as Attorney General especially after the Sandusky thing.
