MILFORD, PA — David Ruby of Milford and Steve Guccini of Greentown officially kicked off their joint election campaign for Pike County Commissioners on Sunday with a brunch at Mt. Haven attended by over 70 supporters. At the event, the Democratic candidates released the details of their campaign platform, which is available at www.RubyGuccini.com.
“We’ve seen the ‘same old, same old’ for a long time from politicians who are more reactive than proactive,” said Ruby, a businessman whose civic involvement includes 35 years with the Milford Fire Department. “We thought it was time to take a grip of the issues confronting our community and put a plan together to address them.”
The candidates’ proposals include rotating commissioners’ meetings throughout the county during evening hours to increase transparency, supporting the establishment of a drug court and offering resources to local entrepreneurs to help create local jobs.
“The worst words in the English language are ‘we’ve always done it this way,’” said Guccini, an attorney who has spent decades advocating for child welfare, including as former assistant district attorney for Pike County. “If ‘this way’ isn’t working, then we can do something better.”
