Our choice in the 26th District state Senate race

We've made our choice in the hotly contested 26th District state Senate race.

I knew early on this was going to be one of the most bitter elections in recent Delco history. Control of the state Senate, which currently sits in the hands of the GOP due to a 27-23 margin, was in the balance as half its members sought re-election.

But what made the 26th District race distinct is that it amounted to an open seat, because of the retirement of longtime Sen. Ted Erickson.

Republican Tom McGarrigle and Democrat John Kane went negative early and have not relented.

To steal a line from one ad, the whole thing was just "ugly."

We'll offer our choice in the race for governor of Pennsylvania, pitting incumbent Republican Tom Corbett vs. Democrat challenger Tom Wolf, on Sunday.
