News & Update: May 12, 2010

We are already halfway through May and there’s been no let up in the Mid-Atlantic Region for politics.  Our union has been quite engaged in a number of fronts and while I can’t cover everything today I am going to try weekly to keep everyone who is interested up to date on what we are doing and where we are going.

The big news this week is in Pennsylvania where Arlen Specter and Joe Sestak are tied according to a new Muhlenberg poll out today: 44 Sestak, 44 Specter, 3% undecided.  The polls have been all over the map in the last few weeks against Specter so this is good news for Arlen.  Dan Onorato continues to hold a substantial lead over his three opponents and we don’t expect much change here.
