Malcolm Derk Announces Tour of all 14 Counties in PA’s 10th District in 14 Days
Today, Snyder County Commissioner Malcolm Derk will start a tour of all 14 counties in Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District. The tour will take him throughout Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania in 14 days.
“Over the next 2 weeks, I will be meeting with residents of the district to listen to their concerns on the important issues facing the country. Chris Carney and the Democratic Congress continue to recklessly spend our money, while failing to improve the economy and decrease unemployment. Too many citizens feel that they are not being heard on these crucial matters. I plan to change that,” Derk said.
Malcolm Derk is starting his tour today, and will be attending events in Lackawanna and Luzerne counties. During the next 14 days, he will be attending meet and greets, editorial board meetings, candidate forums and will be meeting with farmers, business leaders, students, and families. He will end the tour on April 22 with stops in Sullivan and Bradford counties.
Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District includes all of Snyder, Union, Montour, Northumberland, Bradford, Wayne, Wyoming, Sullivan, Susquehanna, and Pike counties and parts of Lackawanna, Luzerne, Lycoming, and Tioga counties.
Malcolm Derk is a candidate for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District. He is the Vice-Chair of the Snyder County Board of Commissioners and is the Public Relations Co-Chair of the Snyder County Republicans, Treasurer on the SEDA-COG Board of Directors and a supply pastor for several congregations in Snyder and Northumberland counties. He also served six years on the Freeburg Borough Council. He lives in Freeburg, PA with his wife, Erin.
