Super Terrific Election Guide
Election 2011: When, where and who ... a guide to voting in Palmer and Forks townships.
Take our poll: Are you going to vote on Tuesday? In the May primary less than 20 percent of Forks and Palmer voters turned out in some areas.
As to the election …
There is one seat open on Palmer’s Board of Supervisors and one candidate running -- incumbent Ann-Marie Panella. Not a difficult decision on that one.
Likewise, in Forks Township, there are two seats and two candidates: Dan Martyak-R and John O'Neil-D. The only mystery seems to be which one will get the four-year seat and which will get the six.
Likewise, there are three candidates running for the three Easton Area School Board seats that represent the Palmer region. There is more of a contest in Forks with Kerri Leonard-Ellison and Cathy McIntyre vying for one four-year seat.
That leaves a choice of four other candidates for two, two-year seats for Region 3: Patrick A. Glovas, R; Frank Castrovinci, R; Janet L. Matthews, D, and Robert J. Moskaitis, D.
You’ll also have to pick your preferred candidate for County Council. The candidates are J. Michael Dowd, R – the incumbent – and challenger Robert F. Werner, both of Easton.
Here’s more information you might want before hitting the voting booth Tuesday.
