Romanelli, Pennsylvania Greens need to clearly disavow fraudulent GOP help

If, indeed, it turns out to be fraudulent.

A week ago, I cried foul over Pennsylvania Democrats’ attempt to keep Green Party Senate candidate Carl Romanelli off the ballot.

But that was before allegations not just of the GOP helping get petition signatures, but of obtaining fraudulent ones.

If the Democratic charges are true, Romanelli and the state Green Party needs to immediately disavow this type of help. The Green Party needs to strenuously avoid devolving into little more than a more progressive version of the two current major parties.
