The good news is that turnout in our area was much higher than in past off-year elections, and the results were considerably closer than in the past.  The bad news is, our team did not pick up any seats.  The link for local election results can be found here: http://www.montcopa.org/montco/election/2007%20General%20Election%20Result.htm

To the disappointment of Montgomery County Democrats, the Republicans picked up two of the three County Commissioner seats, with Joe Hoeffel winning the minority seat.  However, there were a number of bright spots locally.  Mary Lou Readinger handily won her race to be supervisor for Plymouth Township’s 4th ward.  Dems picked up numerous seats in Conshohocken, and won all three Whitemarsh supervisor seats outright.  Democrats also picked up a number of county row office seats, such as Clerk of Courts, Controller, Prothonotary and Coroner, among others.

So – thank you for your support and your vote.  Even though we lost, your support did not go to waste.  The Right Team gave the Republicans the first really competitive race they’d had in years.  The name recognition our team built up could lay the foundation for victory in future years.

We’ll be back in 2009.  Again, thank you for your support.

Today, November 6, is Election Day!  For most of 2007, you’ve seen Right Team candidates at community events, met us as we walked the Colonial School District, read our flyers, and got mailings from our team and from the Republicans.
