Milton Defies All Odds, Remains On Ballot

If Bob Brady is eventually kicked off the ballot — which is probably unlikely — he’ll be one of only a handful. Jesus White and Queena Bass are still on the mayoral ballot. And, most importantly, yesterday a Commonwealth Court judge denied the petition to kick Milton Street off the ballot. Milton is in the running, people!

Making this more amazing is Street managed to stay on the ballot without the benefit of any legal counsel whatsoever. Street argued his own case, and he told KYW 1060’s Mike Dunn he stayed on the ballot due to his incredible arguing techniques:

“I made oral argument, and I gotta tell you, man, I was in good stride, man, I was goin’ full steam ahead.”

As is Milton’s campaign. He says next week he’s going to be unveiling “a proposal and a plan” to curb gun violence. We’re holding our collective breath.
