She's a bit more softspoken (less screechy) than $Palin, but every bit as deeply-installed in Franklin Graham's bible-thumpin' ChristoFascist pocket! Ask who signs hubby Ron Coder's paycheck. BTW, Ron was unabashedly introduced to the Northgate School Board as "the First Dude" of Bellevue by his clueless beauty queen wife, Kathy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043156705049478245.post-27404406621943977982012-01-31T12:50:37.356-05:002012-01-31T12:50:37.356-05:00Kathy Coder for State Rep!!!!Kathy Coder for State Rep!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043156705049478245.post-37712829328251778242012-01-25T01:40:18.797-05:002012-01-25T01:40:18.797-05:00Hummm..

But April 24th will tell the tale.<br /><br />Oh, and I never submitted anything for the special election. It was a done deal by committee. Was not going to waste $3,000.<br /><br />This time its more of an even committee race, so i submitted my $1750 for endorsement.<br /><br />I owe the committee that respect to make an endorsement this time. Last time Burns raised the fee from $700 to $3000 for the 20th alone. Some people just don't want a race, so they convinced Burns to raise the fee.Mark Purcellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043156705049478245.post-80311967447072945502012-01-19T21:43:40.059-05:002012-01-19T21:43:40.059-05:00Mr. Purcell, next time you say "I have always...Mr. Purcell, next time you say "I have always chosen to put my name out front for all to see" you might want to change your username from 'Unknown.' haha.<br /><br />I consider your attempt in the Special Election as a run. If you were interested in it and submitted a letter of intent to the Democratic Committee, but backed out you still gave it a shot. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10049/1036749-178.stm<br /><br />I'll study some numbers to see if you are correct. I was basing my numbers on the amount of Democrats that will most likely show up to vote on Election Day. I feel there will still be more votes out of the city in the new 20th on the Primary. I understand that the district has grown towards the west, but it doesn't appear that much of the city was taken out of the district from the map and description that I read.NorthPGH Progressivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00788183511232621734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043156705049478245.post-75803765969187533972012-01-17T16:47:57.182-05:002012-01-17T16:47:57.182-05:00Glad to see Purcell and his wife have shown up. ha...Glad to see Purcell and his wife have shown up. hahaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043156705049478245.post-90711434368684300542012-01-17T04:25:56.285-05:002012-01-17T04:25:56.285-05:00Mr. Purcell is a serious-minded candidate who has ...Mr. Purcell is a serious-minded candidate who has the maturity and experience to know how to actually DO something in the state legislature.

After volunteering for and serving in Vietnam I started serving my community in public office, first as a Ross Commissioner for 20 years, then helping so many others get elected to public office I can't remember them all. Running for and or holding public office has been a family tradition for three generations in my family. Starting with my Grandfather that served as a District Justice, and my father that started the "Notch Baby's (9) million strong, fighting for the rights of seniors, and my brother as a School Board Director, and my sister as a Township Commissioner. <br />While I support anyone’s right to an opinion, I have always chosen to put my name out front for all to see. Those that agree or disagree step up and say who you are. You'll feel a lot better about yourself.<br />Oh, by the way, I did not run in the 20th special election in 2010, only the democratic primary, and the new 20th is not City heavy, just the opposite is true. Do the numbers.<br /><br />Mark PurcellUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02071695502086812350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043156705049478245.post-23917656580832884662012-01-12T12:05:11.678-05:002012-01-12T12:05:11.678-05:00Purcell has spent his entire life trying to run fo...Purcell has spent his entire life trying to run for elected office. I remember his failed attempt for Congress in 2002. He is the reason good challengers don't run for office.
