Big Names Make News
Democratic Candidate for AG Eugene DePasquale reacts to pushback on Philly DA Krasner's progressive policies, stating, "There are specific areas where I disagree with DA Larry Krasner. Particularly on retail theft where I think even he has made some adjustments because – and I don't want to speak for him – I think he even knows he went too far on that." [Watch ([link removed]) ]
Republican Candidate for AG Dave Sunday touched on trust in our state's elections, sharing, "We protect Democracy by enforcing the law." Sunday continued, "It doesn't matter who you want to win. The expectation is that everyone will do this safely, you will follow the law, and you will accept the outcome when it's over." [Watch ([link removed]) ]
Forward Party Candidate for AG Eric Settle shares that "the Forward Party doesn't have any particular positions as a party – the Forward Party is going to let candidates make up their own minds for what is center, or 'in the middle', for their state." [Watch ([link removed]) ]
