On November 15, the New Age-Examiner newspaper of Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania, published this story, showing how at least four municipalities in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania, filled their councils by means of write-in votes, in the November 6, 2007 election. Voters in small government units in Pennsylvania frequently fill seats via write-ins. Candidates, even incumbents, frequently don’t bother to file to have their names on the ballot, and depend on voters to write them in. Wyoming County is in northeastern Pennsylvania.
I see nothing wrong about this concept. it probably strikes fear in the local politicians.
