Rendell Nominates Daly to Bench

Frank Daly was honored this week with a nomination by Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell to fill a vacant seat on the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas. Governor Rendell's faith and trust in Frank's abilities inspires Frank to live up to the task and gives him more confidence to run for Judge. Trusting Governor Rendell's decision, Frank feels he would be able to carry out the duties associated with this position and live up to the Governor's expectations.

In a press release issued May 9, 2007, Governor Rendell announced his nomination of Frank to replace the Honorable Harry J. Bradley. Frank will sit on the bench until December 31, 2007.

In the press release, Governor Rendell stated, "The breadth and depth of Frank Daly's more than three decades of legal experience, as well as his involvement in the community, clearly makes him an excellent nominee to the Court of Common Pleas. I am pleased that he has accepted the challenge and am proud to make this nomination."

Frank's nomination will go the Pennsylvania State Senate for confirmation.

Democrats Continue to Increase Registration Numbers

Registered Democrats continue to increase in Delaware County while the number of registered Republicans continues its long slide downward. The latest figures released by the Bureau of Elections for May, 2007 show the number of registered Republicans at their lowest level ever in Delaware County.

Registered Republicans are now only 53.3 % of the total number of registered voters in the county, with 203,561 Republican voters.

Registered Democrats now number 134,795 voters, or 35.3% of the total registration. Registered Independents equal 43,240 voters, or 11.3%.

Democrats have crossed the 35% threshold. More importantly, the number of new Democrats registering for the first time since the November, 2006 election is over 1,000 voters, while Republicans actually lost 2,000 voters during the same period. The Delaware County Democratic Party continues to show momentum and strength following our spectacular gains at the polls last November.
