Sad News for Election Integrity in Pennsylvania: Demodonkey's Mother
I am a long time lurker, new member, from Pennsylvania. Please forgive me for any cross postings, but many of you may know demodonkey (Marybeth) of VotePA, and in case you did not hear, I am very sad to say that she lost her beloved mother earlier this month. I am posting this with her permission.

Merle Kuznik succumbed to the results of a tragic accident and was laid to rest a little over a week ago. She was a wonderful and wise woman whose many years as a poll worker and voting rights advocate were a true inspiration not only to her daughter, Marybeth, but to all of us who were lucky enough to know her. Her support was crucial to VotePA.
