Willie Singletary
Welcome to Philadelphia!
This is a portion of a notice that was posted at my polling place this morning:
VOTES FOR THIS CANDIDATE WILL NOT BE COUNTED
DEAR VOTERS:
Willie Singletary, candidate for Democratic Council At-Large,
has been removed from the Primary Ballot by Court Order.
Although his name appears on the ballot, votes for this
candidate will not be counted because he was convicted of two
Class E felonies by the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania, which bars his candidacy under
Article 2, Section 7 of the Pennsylvania Constitution.
