Pennsylvania's State House Problem

Pennsylvania has a problem with their State House officials, they're in office way too long.  In Pennsylvania incumbents tend to stay in office until they decide to retire,  often serving over ten terms or twenty years.  The Morning Call has done an excellent exposé on the war chests that these Representatives For Life have accumulated.  The article, by Ford Turner,  reveals that the representative overseeing the committee on insurance has over $268,000 in campaign funds, donated mostly by the insurance companies that she is supposed to regulate. 

Pennsylvania has the largest state house in the country, with 203 districts.  An incumbent would be hard pressed to actually need more than $10,000 to wage a campaign for reelection. A war chest of over $200,000 would take care of the next 20 years of campaigning.  There are 24 representatives with chests well over $100,000.

While representatives,  especially ones running for the first time, promise reform and term limits, I know of none who actually did what they promised.  If I were to be elected as the write-in candidate for the 183rd district,  I would limit myself to two terms.  The current Republican incumbent is already running for his third term. His Democratic opponent is running for a job and a paycheck. 

Write-in a true independent for the 183rd, vote for true reform, write-in Michael Molovinsky.
