Today the mayor of Braddock announced he would be running for the Lt Governor of PA. I was there because he is good for the Hood. He understands what our needs are because he lives here in the poorest zip code in the United States. A town the New York Times called Hell. A town that people who live in Allegheny County are terrified to come and visit.
Mayor John as we locals call him knows what its like driving around Braddock and North Braddock in twenty below getting peoples gas on. He works with the gas company.
His wife Gisele runs The Free Store, it is what it says it is. Its a store where everything is free. She is a friendly person who is very helpful to the hood.
John worked with the youth and saved a lot of young men and women from ending up dead or in Prison. He helped them get their GED and get jobs with Amercorps. My nephew and neices all were saved by Amercorps.
I have personally tangled with Mayor John and he showed me and the Community that he does listen to us.
I supported John through Mayor, US Senator and now Lt Governor of PA. To the Hoods of PA he's the only politician running in a state wide election who understands what's its like living in the Hood. We need to vote in the Primary and support him.
