Meet Nick DiFrancesco

Until Monday I had no idea who Nick DiFrancesco. Today I still can’t really say I know him a lot better, but I have met him.

And I can tell you this. I’m jealous.

DiFrancesco is running for lieutenant governor. That’s not why I’m jealous.

DiFrancesco is a Republican Dauphin County commissioner. That’s out near Harrisburg. He’s seeking the GOP nomination for the state’s No. 2 spot.
And to introduce himself to voters and others in the state he’s in the process of visiting every one of the state’s 67 counties.

Monday he was here in Delco to meet with elected officials and GOP leaders. Not sure if he bumped into Tom Killion, R-168. The state rep from Middletown (our Middletown, not the one DiFrancesco grew up in near
Harrisburg) is mulling a run of his own for the GOP lieutenant governor nomination.

DiFrancesco is calling it the “Roadtrip for Honest Government.” You say you’ve heard it before?

DiFrancesco is doing it on a motorcycle. Monday was a glorious late summer day. DiFrancesco and his wife stopped in the office for about 15 minutes to introduce himself. Then he was back on his Harley and headed for Chester County.

I wish him well. Actually I wish I was right beside him, tooling along the open road, soaking up the sun, the wind in my face.

Stay in touch, Nick.
