The Democratic Candidate for the 9th District, Denny Wolff, spoke today at a Schuylkill County farm. The host, a dairy farmer like Mr. Wolff, was a Republican but wanted to hear what Mr. Wolff had to say.
There were about 45 people in attendance, mostly rural types, probably a good portion of whom voted for Trump. I would predict that every one of them left the gathering determined to vote for Wolff in November. The man is impressive. He knew the details of farm policies, knew the problems farmers faced, and had suggestions and ideas on how to solve many of those problems.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the candidates who knew the most and were the most qualified won the elections? Wolff’s opponent, a guy who just moved into the district and hopes to buy himself a congressional seat, has millions of dollars to spend. This year, however, that may not be enough. It may be a Republican district, but hopefully it is a district full of people who understand the difference between a qualified candidate like Wolff and a self-aggrandizing uninformed Wall Street elitist like Meuser.
