Squirrel Hill man seeking 5th District City Council seat
Squirrel Hill man seeking 5th District City Council seat
By Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Tuesday, February 15, 2011
A former state constable announced yesterday he is seeking the Republican nomination for the 5th District City Council seat.
Josh Wander, 40, of Squirrel Hill is self-employed. From 2003-07, he was a state constable in White Oak, and is a Republican committeeman.
In a prepared statement, Wander said that "his firm belief in ... limited government and lower taxes are what separates him from the other local candidates who are part of a party whose reckless financial spending bankrupted this once-proud city."
Doug Shields is the city councilman for the 5th District, which includes Squirrel Hill, Greenfield, New Homestead, Hazelwood, and parts of Point Breeze, Lincoln Place, Hays, Glen Hazel, Swisshelm Park, Glenwood and Regent Square.

Pittsburgh Mayoral Election 2009
The certified results show that:
Luke Ravenstahl got 607 votes
Josh Wander got 189 votes
Patrick Dowd got 161 votes
and
Carmen Robinson got 42 votes
I received almost a fifth of the Pittsburgh Republican vote in the mayoral primary. That was with only 3 days and no money, imagine what we could do with more time and money!
Luke has, for the time being, accepted the nomination and will be running on both ballots against Independent Kevin Acklin.
Isn't it a sad state of affairs when three out of four of the top Republican write-in candidates in Pittsburgh were Democrats! What does this say about Pittsburgh's abused political system?
Thank you again for the 189 people that stood up to the plate at the last minute to try and help Pittsburgh stay (become, maybe?) a Democracy consisting of multiple parties!
As the 'esteemed' Republican governor of California once said, "I'll be back!"

Election Results
Unfortunately, the results of my write in campaign will not be officially released until June 8th. On a positive note, it is VERY encouraging that 1,130 Republicans in the city of Pittsburgh showed up and cast their write-in ballots! If Luke gets what he got last time, (I'm told 355 Republican write ins) it looks as if WE WON!!!!
Stay tuned for more information and thank you to all those who supported me.
