Sunday 8-11am: ballot petition, Redwood for County Council
by Edwin Everhart 14 Jul '23

14 Jul '23

Dear neighbors, Carl Redwood, Jr., is running for Allegheny County Council, District 10. *I will be in Tazza D'Oro on Sunday (July 16) from 8:00am-11:00am, to collect signatures to get Carl on the ballot. I will be wearing a red T-shirt.* More information about the campaign: https://redwoodforcouncil.com/carl/ Personally I'm excited about Carl because he wants to make sure people can afford to live in Pittsburgh, that it isn't just a playground for the super-rich and absentee real estate investors. And, Allegheny County Jail has some of the worst conditions in the country - and I believe Carl would be more serious about addressing those conditions than our current representative for District 10. Best wishes for the weekend - stay cool everyone --- Edwin K. Everhart (he/him)
