Lots of Outside Money Influencing the 52nd District State Rep Election

This is only part of Ms. Kula's Cycle 3 Campaign Finance Report, but it shows a lot of money coming in from Teresa Heinz ($5000) and her son Chris Heinz ($3000).

Any candidate that accepts that much money from outside of the 52nd District can NOT be "for the people", because they would have to make sure Teresa and Chris get their money's worth by doing them favors if they are elected.

That's why it should be illegal to accept money from outside influences.

This was "cut and pasted" from the Pennsylvania Department of State website:

It's time to stop electing career politicians and elect the candidate that has earned each of his jobs and has never been appointed to his jobs.

We need a state representative for we, the people of the 52nd District, not a representative for the rich Heinz family in Pittsburgh and Washington, DC.

Vote William R. Earnesty for State Representative!

Until Next Time...Have A Great Day!!!

Campaign Finance Reports are In!!!

Another busy week with lots of baseball & softball practices and games to keep the summer days flying by and it has been HOT, but no rain, so it's ok with me!

It's campaign finance report time! Time to follow the money.

First of all, I would like to thank all of the people who donated to my campaign between May 15-19th. All of you were very generous!

We received $238 on Election Day from 10 different people (mostly Democrats) with donations ranging in amounts from $10-$50 each. Over half of these donations were from Fayette and Westmoreland County Democratic Committee people who were upset with how their party ran the primary election.
They did not elaborate and I didn't ask for specifics, but they were very upset!

Election Day was very cold, but it was very heart warming to have so many Democrats wish me luck and tell me that they wish they could vote for me.

We also received $145 from 4 people from 5/17-5/19, with donations ranging from $20-$50.
We received donations totaling $1846.53 from myself, my uncle, and Cheryl Koontz all of whom live within the 52nd District.

The above donations were all listed on the Cycle 3 Finance Report filed for me personally as William R. Earnesty.


We also filed a cycle 3 report for my William R. Earnesty Election Committee, but since the total of all transactions were less than $250, per Pennsylvania Campaign Finance Laws, we didn't have to list each transaction on the report, but since I am for open records, I will list them here.

The committee received a $100 contribution and an in kind contribution of approximately $50.
The in kind contribution was in the form of approximately 40 used campaign signs and stakes received from a Fayette County Democrat candidate that lost in the primary.

Thank you very much to everyone that contributed to my campaign in either monetary contributions or by donating your time!!!

If you have time, please check out this link for all of the Campaign Finance Reports for the 52nd District candidates and as you view them notice the addresses of the contributors and wonder why someone from outside the district and/or state would be contributing so much money to a certain campaign.

I will be posting soon (some time between Monday and Wednesday) about Ms. Kula's report.

Wait until you see who donated $8000 to her campaign!!!

You may or may not be surprised, but our committee is holding a contest to the best comment, idea, guess, or reasoning behind why the Heinz-Kerry family would be so interested in influencing your election. How can someone be "for the people" when you accept money from people who don't live in Pittsburgh or Washington, DC?

You can email your entries to electearnesty@zoominternet.net.

The best entry (whether it is serious or funny) will receive an Elect William R. Earnesty T-Shirt or some other item comparable in value.

I continue to receive lots of emails every week from citizens looking to volunteer for the upcoming elections. Please keep the emails coming, because I enjoy hearing from all of you!!!


Until Next Time...Have A Great Day!!!

To Ms. Deberah Kula

Ms. Kula:

I know from the recorded IP addresses that you read this blog, so I will pass this note to you through my blog, since you did not answer the email that I sent to your email address.

I cut and pasted that email to you in an earlier post, so there is no reason to post it again, but I do look forward to your reply soon, because I have had a couple of community groups and a local reporter call me about debates.

Of course, I told them that I look forward to debating issues with you, but that you don't seem to want to debate in front of the great citizens of the Fay-West area. I told them to call me, if they could talk you into debating me.

You can reach me at electearnesty@zoominternet.net.

I look forward to hearing from you, so that we can help the voters cast an informed vote and elect the best person for the job.

Until Next Time...Have A Great Day!!!

Father and Son Weekend at Camp Christian

This weekend was AWESOME!!!

I got to spend the weekend one on one with my son and other Christian fathers and thier sons in fellowship and fun at Camp Christian in Mill Run, PA.

My son and I had a great time, but I am glad we chose to sleep in the dorm instead of a tent, because it was COLD in the mornings.

We had a really great time bonding and we already planned to attend next year and other camping trips with just my son and I.

Of course, I can't let my daughter out, so I am planning a camp out with just her and I.

If anyone wants to have a great time or wants their children to attend a great church camp, then check out this site www.camp-christian.org

Until Next Time...Have a Great Day!!!

A Very Very Busy 3 Weeks Since My Last Post

First off, let me apologize for not updating the Vote 4 Earnesty Blog, but the Earnesty family has been very busy.

Let's start with Memorial Day weekend, my children and I went around to the local cemeteries to put flowers on the graves of our deceased relatives.

We also enjoyed Connellsville's Memorial Day Parade, where I met a gentleman who tried to persuade me to campaign during the parade, but I had to explain to him that Memorial Day is not a day to campaign for votes, but a day to remember our fallen heroes, so I gave him my cell phone number and told him to give me a call.

I personally can not stand it when politicians campaign on holidays, that's why I say that I am NOT a politician.

The week following Memorial Day was packed with my children's softball and baseball games and of course 40 to 60 hours of work every week this month.

On Sunday June 3rd, I went to the American Legion District meeting and met some great Veterans. The Legion have been doing some great things taking care of our homeless vets, our vets that are in nursing homes and the VA hospital, and of course the families of our fallen brothers. I am very proud to be a member of the American Legion.

We need to have more veterans in state office and I am proud to be one of a few veterans running for office.

Of course another week of baseball and softball. I am glad I can volunteer for the kids.

I will do a separate post soon to let everyone know what my son and I did this weekend.

Until Next Time...Have a Great Day!!!
