Triple dipper Andy Wallace stepped aside as the Chief Clerk Of Lackawanna County. You remember Wallace. He was the government pensioner that Pat O’Malley engineered into that position after Evie Refalko McNulty’s name was on the door. Apparently there is an incident report from Archbald Police involving Wallace at a P&R Grocery Store.
Wallace said he was resigning for health reasons and the old stand by, “To spend more time with his family!”

This week, after the two appeared together in Philadelphia for a fundraiser for the Republican Governors Association, Vice President Pence endorsed Scott Wagner.
Vice President Pence tweeted, “Proud to be in Philadelphia today campaigning for @realScottWagner- the next great governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania! Scott will fight for all the hardworking people of Pennsylvania! Support Scott Wagner & #FixPA!”
“I am incredibly grateful for the support of Vice President Pence,” added Scott Wagner. “While the Vice President has our national economy booming, Governor Wolf’s failed policies have given us an unemployment rate almost 20 percent higher than the national average. Governor Wolf wants to take from Pennsylvanians the savings they are receiving from the federal tax cut. I look forward toward working with Vice President Pence to get our economy on par with the rest of the country and to ensure Pennsylvanians keep more money in their paychecks.”

WAGNER ACCEPTS 11 GUBERNATORIAL DEBATE INVITATIONS

2018 Republican gubernatorial nominee Scott Wagner today announced he has accepted invitations to 11 gubernatorial debates to be held at venues across the commonwealth.
The announcement follows Wagner’s call for a rigorous town hall oriented debate schedule, which Governor Wolf declined. To date, Governor Wolf has not publicly accepted any debates.
“The Wolf campaign responded to our initial proposal by saying that we ‘ducked’ debates during the primary in spite of the fact that we participated in twelve debates -- which is more than any endorsed gubernatorial candidate in recent history,” said Campaign Manager Jason High. “We hope Governor Wolf applies that standard to himself, doesn’t ‘duck’ any debates and participates in at least 12 with Scott in the general election. We have accepted every debate request we have received so far and look forward to adding more to this schedule.”
Wagner has accepted the following debate invitations:
1. NBC 10 Debate
2. Fox 29 Debate
3. Pennsylvania Chamber of Commerce Debate
4. The Chamber Of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia
5. Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce Debate
6. League of Women’s Voters, WTAE Debate
7. NAACP Debate
8. WPXI Debate
9. PennLive / CBS21 Debate
10.WGAL Debate
11.WHP Radio Debate
Wagner is committed to participating in all 11 debates listed above regardless of Governor Wolf’s attendance.
Wagner also is open to participating in more debates, especially in traditionally underrepresented media markets like Johnstown-Altoona, Erie and Scranton. 
 Okay, it's clear that Wagner wants to debate but these invitations are just that. The proof will be in the eating of the pudding as to whether Tom Wolf will even debate Wagner three or four times.
