Reed weighs write-in campaign
The Patriot-News today quotes Randy King, a consultant and former aide to Mayor Stephen R. Reed of Harrisburg, as saying his former boss is seriously considering a write-in campaign. King makes the astute observation that only 25 percent of Harrisburg's 28,000 registered voters cast ballots in the primary election, and that the general election remains "wide open."
I've made the same point several times. I don't deny the difficulty of a write-in campaign, but I hope Reed goes for it. Perhaps there is a deal with Mindlin to drop out of the Republican side of the race? Stranger things have happened in politics.
