Tom Marflak withdraws as GOP candidate for Prothonotary

Too bad, I like Tom Marflak and thought he was a good candidate.

What now? Should the GOP just forget about it and concentrate on Bryan Kline's race? After all, Patterson did poorly in his re-election primary for Clerk of Courts.

Heaven's no...they needt to find a new candidate....this isn't about a candidate having a personal appeal that will sweep them into election. this is about turning out the vote. Having three candidates working at turning out the GOP vote rather than 2 is very good. Once most GOPers get out there in this election they will vote for the GOP candidates.

Even though in the state of PA there are 1.2million more democrats than REpublicans there were still 22,000+ more Republican Voters in the primary. We absolutely can turnout more Repubs than Dems in this county. So I say the more candidates the merrier and that a united effort among three candidates(plus the local candidates) plus the party apparatus can produce a winning formula in November

They could of had four candidates but not every republican helped harry smail (horvat's) like they did Bononi

If she is related to Wayne, i am sure the committee people would help her out. They pick and choose who they will support.

The Horvat's most certainly did help Harry Smail. I was at their poll on election day and they were handing out Smail Tablets and Bononi flyers plus the State Committee Slate Card which listed BOTH Smail and Bononi.

So give me a break

I agree, and that should not be the case. The party needs to unite and get all Rep candidates elected.

Yeah right they supported samil.That's why they were only putting up Bononi signs. Did they go to any of harrys fundraisers? NO!!!!!!!!!

But to the question yes Bryan Kline's race should be focused on. No one is going to beat a O'Brien.The party people need to realize Bryan is their only hope to win a row office. He is a very good candidate.

Sue Scherff? Oh my god - What a disaster. CAN WE PLEASE GET OFF OF THESE FRIGGIN KICKS?! Let's get some new, viable blood into the Republican Party in Westmoreland County. We are already a laughing stock because of Frank Schiefer. GIVE ME A BREAK! Get new names Hempfield folks. The world doesn't revolve around Hempfield Township!!!!

Patterson did post weak results in the primary. If caruso would of been kicked off the ballot Laughlin would of won, the primary.

the post was about Tom Marflak withdraws as GOP candidate for Prothonotary. I'm a Latrobe resident and would like to tell you that Marflak was the worst mayor Latrobe has ever had. At this point I wish Unity township would take over Latrobe. way to much politics in Latrobe. The business hub is RT 30 in unity not downtown Latrobe.

Lisa Gower should run it would help take away from O Brians woman vote.

I wonder who wrote that about Lisa, probably her pet, Frank.

You are just so mean and hateful. Why do you hate Frank so much? Why does every post on here end up being about Frank and NOW you have to spew your hatred onto Lisa. How do you even look at yourself in the mirror? You are a very evil person.

Williams is a weird Schiefer croony.

Maybe the WORLD doesn't revolve around Hempfield Township, but it seems the county does. Hempfield is probably the most active committee in the county. Why not Sue Scherff for prothonotary? No, that would never work since she is friends with Frank (sarcasm). Sue is a true leader who gets things done. But then........What does any of these last few posts have to to with Tom Marflak withdrawing as a candidate for Prothonotary?

Frank should just move from the county go cause problems elsewhere Schiefer!
