Well, this just gave me the shove I needed to decide for whom to vote.

Heard Deely imploded in his debate yesterday and couldn't even answer some basic questions. Everyone is on to him and what he stands for, his record speaks for itself. Anyone that does vote for him is voting for teacher unions, NOT teachers.

Not sure where you heard that from...I attended the debate and was shocked that Simmons lost his composure several times throughout the event. Worse, he attacked Deely for his kids not living in the district, as they reside with their mother due to divorce. Disagreeing on issues is one thing, dragging his kids into this exemplifies his lack of maturity. The "basic question" he did not answer was his position on the proposed quarry in Lower Milford. I appreciated his honesty that he was not familiar with this particular issue, rather than making up a bs response as so many politicians do. I wasn't convinced that Deely was the right candidate to support, but after last nights debate, I will be throwing my support behind him.

I don't care for the deception..I get the postcards in the mail representing both men. Simmons cards represent who & what Simmons is and what his passions are. Deely's has a picture of this beautiful, adorable, loving family together but he (from what I read) ,lives alone above a deli? Where is the honesty in that? If he can't be honest about the simple basic things and his own foundation...can he be trusted at all?

Eric... I was at the debate as well. Simmons DID NOT lose his composure.He just flat out crushed Kevin Deely.. Simmons established that Deely is a LIAR. Deely said in the debate that he moved to the district so he kids can get a great education.???!!!!! THEY DONT EVEN LIVE HERE ! .... TOUCHE !!!!!!!!!!!!
Rewatch the tape.And you tell me Rep Simmons is not mature? all he did was establish that Deely is a freaking liar.Your just another liberal who cannot accept the fact that Rep Simmons established himself as the CLEAR CHOICE FOR ALL THE PEOPLE. During the debate Rep Simmons demonstrated his grasp of all the issues whereas Deely was not in his comfort zone throughout the debate when not talking about teachers.
You democrats should hang you head in shame because Deely is a joke.
Any undecided voters who view the debate will undoubtley vote for Rep Simmons.

Joe, first and foremost, I am not liberal. A a registered independent, I am sick of the extreme hyperpartisanship of both sides. Attacking me, for my personal take on a subjective debate speaks to your ignorance, lack of respect and common courtesy. It's fine to disagree with me, but don't disrespect me behind the safety of your anonymity. It's people like you that have created the unproductive discourse and narrative of this country.

I generally don't get involved in local politics, but Kevin is a close friend of mine. Kevin and his wife will be having their first child together in the coming months. I commend him, and anyone else who runs for public office, for stepping up and challenging a system that clearly is not working. The right likes to talk about school choice--is not okay that Kevin moved to the district for its education programs? That seems to fall under the category of "choice" in my book. Now, I don't agree with many of Kevin's positions; however, Simmons has demonstrated time and again, that he extremely ideological in his enthusiasm ("all in"), and is not willing to work with the other side to advance the future of pennsylvania families.

Paula...Deely could use a few doobies today .His performance at the debate was abysmmal and he embarassed himself and the democratic party last night.Never have I seen an event where an incumbent throughly dismissed his opponent as strongly as Representative Simmons did last night.

I met Rep.Simmons and his staff last school year. I was around them often. What a WONDERFUL bunch of people. We need Justin. He is an intelligent, hard working very focused individual. He and his staff do extensive research and become completely informed on his topics. I spoke to Deely about the same topics as I did Rep. Simmons and Deely disappeared! Justin listened to his constituents.....Deely runs from them! We are team Justin!

cont: Justin Simmons and his staff even took time for our children who are now understanding and have taken an interest in politics. We need our children to understand and be interested-they are our future. Rep. Simmons really is the better man for the job.

Hahaha! I love that cartoon commercial! Really shows you what a joke Kevin "high as a kite" Deely is. Playing that commercial during the televised airing of the debate would make a nice one-two punch.

Frankly I'm more concerned about Justin's inability to give direct answers to questions about serious issues and stepping aside to assault his competitor. I think it's time he actually told us how he intends to move us forward in a positive direction and toss aside the whole "high" nonsense. I think Justin has his private personal issues as well. But if he truly cosponsored a transvaginal ultrasound bill, then people deserve to know that he's seriously not about personal liberty in this state.

It's important to note that Simmons initially did co-sponsor the transvaginal ultrasound bill, but then dropped his co-sponsoship as it was exposed and became widely unpopular. He used the word "maverick" to describe himself in last night's debate. Hopefully he'll come around to supporting a modest tax for natural gas companies like every other state has since he governs based solely on public opinion and political convenience.

I don't think the Dem's had a whole lot of vetting on this candidate...wow I'll take Simmons any day over this union hack.

I put up a photo of a Jr. Lawmaker Form that my small 9 year old little girl filled out BECAUSE of Justin Simmons. He is such a posotive influence on children. Please read what she wrote. He has helped to inspire her to help children in wheelchairs and/or children with disabilities. He is a great role model. Thanks Justin!
