Buzz and I attended the Mike Pendolphi for Judge rally tonight at the Chicken Coop. We originally stopped in for a couple of dozen of General Alarm Chicken Wings and a cold frosted brew when we ran into Pendolphi.
Pendolphi is one of only two Republicans who is running for judge in Luzerne County. In March, he received the endorsement of the Luzerne County Republican Party along with fellow Republican Richard Hughes.
The 43 year old Pendolphi was accompanied at his event by his wife Sharon and six year old daughter Madyson.
Pendolphi said, “In my career, I have tried civil jury trials, criminal jury trials, custody, divorce and support trials, equity trials, children and youth dependency and termination of parental rights trials and even juvenile criminal trials. There is no time for on-the-job training when people’s lives, liberty, family and property are at stake.”
We spoke with one long time Luzerne County attorney who said he strongly supports Pendolphi. He said, "Mike has fought in the trenches of the legal system for many years. He has handled almost every case imaginable in front of almost every judge and magistrate in this county. That is the type of experience lacking in the resume of many of the other judicial candidates. He knows what it's like to represent the little guy or gal against the powerful. That's the type of person we need to be judge."

I don't know how any good Republican could not vote for Pendolphi and Hughes. All the people who violated the public trust in Luzerne County were loyal Democrats.
We need Republicans like Pendolphi and Hughes in the court house.
There's only one Republican on the bench (Tom Burke) and he is one of the most honorable people you'd ever meet.
Republicans should vote for Republicans. Pendolphi and Hughes all the way.
