Mary Popovich (Democratic Party) ran for election to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives to represent District 58. She lost in the general election on November 6, 2018.

Popovich was a 2016 Democratic candidate for District 58 of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.[1]

Campaign themes

2016

Popovich's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[2]

Accountability of elected officials:

  • Excerpt: "When a citizen assumes the role of a public official, they must remember to work for the public they serve. They must be accountable to the public and perform their duties with due diligence and focus on constituents, not the politics of the party to which they belong."

Support for working families:

  • Excerpt: "A livable wage is needed for working families to thrive, as tax dollars are not meant to subsidize paychecks. Employees must be able to maintain their right to organize and form a union if they desire, without the fear of retaliation."

Education is essential:

  • Excerpt: "Adequate funding for schools is absolutely critical. Although each community should pay their fair share, trying to reduce the educational deficit through increases in property taxes is not feasible or sustainable."

Strengthening and revitalize our communities:

  • Excerpt: "By attracting good, living-wage jobs and business to our area we can help end blight and keep our communities strong and vital."

Supporting Police, Fire, EMS, and Emergency Management Agencies:

  • Excerpt: "Our state and local governments need to provide financial support to police, fire, emergency medical services and emergency management agencies, because this is what the public expects and deserves."
