I asked my three employees who their Congressman is.  None of them had any idea.  The oldest one said she didn't know and she didn't care.

Half the population can't even name the Vice President.

I just don't get the sense that this town in the 12th district is worried about toppling because its Congressman is dead.

RQH don't forget that some of the employees there could live in the 18th which is about to be eliminated espcecially since PA may go to 17 seats in 2012.  BTW isn't the 18th District represented by Tim Murphy(I haven't looked when I posted this but I believe it is).  Also I believe the 4th comes close in certain points in that area.  Most people just go in and pull the D or R lever based on family or past experiences.  Will have to try and find the PA congressional district map again.  It is time to break it out and see where our next congressperson is coming from.  Also see who our district mates will be.

There's a map on our late Congressman's website.  All three live in the 12th.

It will be interesting to see who the candidates are for the special election.

One could win a Congressional seat and lose his primary on the same day.

IMO it may come down to 2 candidates that are not running in the primary for the special election.  Just a thought
