While Republican congressional candidate William Russell gave a television interview in an Upper Yoder Township backyard, campaign manager Peg Luksik worked a crowd of about 15 on a nearby porch.

Her high-energy pitch included showing off several varieties of Russell T-shirts and urging supporters to each take two bumper stickers to better advertise the candidate while driving.

“This really is a little-guy campaign,” she said. “Anything you can do, we certainly appreciate it. It does make a difference.”

The campaign event last week, complete with a table covered with snacks and kids playing in the grass, showed that Russell intends to play hardball in a small-ball way as he tries to unseat powerful U.S. Rep. John Murtha, D-Johnstown.

Murtha is my rep, and he's strong enough to beat this guy.

1. Luksik is an "ardent" pro-lifer. Ultra-conservative.

Great to hear that they had a small turnout.
