Democrat Chad Kluko to challenge Murphy for seat in 18th District

To run against Tim Murphy, R, is one thing. To win or even just challenge, there must be a competitive primary. The fact that there are two, or even three Dems, is going to be GOOD for the overall chances for the eventual winner of the D primary. The contested primary is needed in these situations.

Next, it would be good to get a women in the race too.
Democrat Chad Kluko to challenge Murphy for seat in 18th District: "Mr. Kluko, 44, is a graduate of Gateway High School and the Center for Media Arts in New York City. He spent most of the past two decades working in California at positions including director of national operations for Verizon Wireless and executive director of broadcast operations for the Fox Television Network.

Mr. Kluko said that family concerns had brought him back to Pittsburgh recently. Since then he has worked as CEO of the Diora-Ling Co., a small business concentrating on software development.

Mr. Kluko said he expects to make a formal declaration of his candidacy sometime in the next 10 days."
