STATE SUPREME COURT CANDIDATES ARE SET FOR NOVEMBER ELECTION  

Current state Superior Court Judge Dan McCaffery has won the Democratic primary to fill a vacant judge seat on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.  He defeated fellow judge Deborah Kunselman in Tuesday’s voting and will face Republican Carolyn Carluccio this fall. Carluccio is a judge on the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas.  The state supreme court will be deciding many issues soon, including a challenge to a state law that restricts the use of public funds to help women get abortions as well as a challenge to a current law that bars Philadelphia and other cities from restricting the sale and possession of guns.
