Candidates sound off on LGBT issues

With Election Day approaching Nov. 4, PGN reached out to candidates in a number of local contested races: the gubernatorial race and Congressional races in the 13th District, where there was a vacancy, and Seventh and Eighth districts, where Democrats are challenging Republican incumbents. None of the four Republican candidates - Gov. Tom Corbett, Dee Adcock and Congressmembers Patrick Meehan and Mike Fitzpatrick - responded to PGN's requests for interviews, while the Democrats - Tom Wolf, state Rep. Brendan Boyle, Mary Ellen Balchunis and Kevin Strouse - participated in interviews about their positions on LGBT issues and their plans for LGBT-rights progress.
