Hannah, the Northampton Democratic Committee voter registration mascot takes time out to pose for the camera at our very successful registration drive on Saturday, March 15, 2008. There was a steady stream of registration changes from Republican to Democrat. Thanks to all that helped!

Hannah’s owner is Debbie Glessner. Hannah is in training to become a therapy dog, hopefully to work in schools as  part of a Pet Assisted Learning program.

I’ve been an Obama supporter for months. I’m wondering what is happening at the state and local levels.

I cannot thank everyone enough for their dedication, support and hardwork in getting Frank and I elected to the Northampton Township Board of Supervisors. He and I look forward to serving you over the next 6 years. The first meeting was quite a contentious night. Look forward to seeing you all at upcoming meetings and Township Events. Happy and healthy new year to all!!

Jim Cunningham

Judge William Benz swearing-in Jim Cunningham and Frank Rothermel as Northampton Township Supervisors meeting on Monday, January 7, 2008 at the Northampton Township administration building. Many supporters were in attendance.

I am not sure where the rule comes from that local politics should always be nice. When one party rules, as has been the case in Northampton Township since day one in it’s history until now,  little  if any dissension  is ever  shown to the public. Decisions were made behind closed doors before a public meeting and the “club” generally came out with a united front.  Now that we have a split board we will see more heated discussion at public board meetings. While this would appear to be just political bickering it really is a good thing and is part of our long established political process.  If  Frank and Jim were not constantly questioning then they would not really be representing us would they? They really do have a “watchdog” position. What do you think?

Ok lets get a discussion started! Who do you think will win the Democratic presidential nomination?
