I hope Trump or somebody in his campaign would tweet this out. How many voters do you think know about them?

Make sure to follow #PAPrimary and #PennsylvaniaPrimary. This is an interesting list for Trump supporters; delegates not to vote for.

Mod cut: removed graphic - please post links instead.

We found this sample ballot for Barrett Township (which is the same for the rest of the 10th District with maybe some small changes): http://www.monroecountypa.gov/Dept/V...BarrettTwo.pdf. As Trump supporters we will have to vote for Ryan Belz, John Wells, and Mark Stoicheff. The first two sound firmly committed; but we are not sure of Mark?


What is this about a Senator as an elector? Or what is it about alternative electorates that can also be electorates? Or alternatives that can have their husbands as electorates? I hate this system!

They are conveniently hiding their support on the ballot. The Pennsylvania GOP is in on this. I should be able to go to their web site and get this information. Instead, I have to dig into an obscure spreadsheet from some stranger.

Glad you've decided to start voting in the primaries HappyRider. Great to see more people involved in our convoluted voting process. Yesterdays paper spelled out some of those bound and unbound delegates for the Lehigh Valley. Who do the Pennsylvania Republican delegates support? - The Morning Call

At least we democrats know who our delgates are representing! ;-)

NG plants are cheaper to build and typically more efficient but it certainly doesn't make up for that much difference.

Coal plants provide base power, there is a lot of capital investment involved in this but that is offset because they run nearly constantly at maximum capacity for 50, 60, 70.... years. It's because of this and the very low cost for the fuel that makes electric generated from coal very cheap. There is no energy source that come anywhere near competing with this for cost.

Historically gas has provided power for intermediate and what they call peaking plants that ramp up or down based on demand. Despite the higher cost for the fuel they are cheaper in the long run for this purpose because they can more efficiently meet this swing demand.

With the CO2 regulations hanging over their heads and who knows what next investing in a coal plant has become a risky investment so the utilities are opting for gas.

FYI the lower CO2 is only when you consider the plant operation. Studies are still preliminary but there is large amounts of CO2 and methane released during the extraction process for gas.

Agreed. Bill Clinton is a "super delegate" for his wife. Lots of suspense there.

I am having a few problems with the 10th District; I have a different set of names:


#1 – Ryan Belz – recruited by the Trump campaign in December of 2015
#4 – John Wells* – recruited by the Trump campaign in December of 2015 (view pledge)
#5 – Mark Stoicheff – Supports Trump (Still needs to be properly vetted)


So, now, I am trying to contact Trump PA to clear up the confusion.
