Don’t Be Fooled – Tea Party Enthusiasts on Republican Ballot
The Tea Party wing of the Republican Party, which brought us the recent government shutdown, has a plan to groom and run extreme, zealously conservative candidates in local races. It’s a strategy in play in Tredyffrin, and we need your help to stop it!
On the November 5 ballot both Republican school board candidates from Tredyffrin are Tea Party devotees: Pete Connors is running in Region 1 against our Kevin Buraks, incumbent and current school board President. In Region 2, Republican Rich Brake is is running for re-election, challenged by our Scott Dorsey. Both Republican candidates are being marketed to voters as mainstream individuals, but their political footprints tell an entirely different story.
