Mary Popovich is seeking the 58th district seat in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. She is currently serving her third term as Mayor of the Borough of West Newton, the first women to hold this office. Prior to her election as Mayor, she served as a member of borough council for three years. She plans to run a grassroots campaign and is tired of the negative ads and gerrymandering to ensure a candidate will win.

As your State Representative, Mary will encourage civic participation because the voice of the people should be heard in Harrisburg. She believes in open records, so constituents can better understand how the actions of their elected officials are affecting their daily lives. She encourages accountability of officials that work for you, so the people of our district do not have to endure hardships when the state budget is not passed by the deadline.

Mary is dedicated to fighting for proper funding appropriations to maintain sustainability for our increasingly fractured communities, crumbling infrastructure, and underfunded schools. She looks forward to continuing her life-long dedication to education, and elevating the working class and under-privileged families of Southwestern Pennsylvania. Her legislative goals include job creation, eliminating blight through programs that support local government to accomplish this task, addressing drug addiction problems affecting families and communities through education and task force programs, and providing support for programs to enhance our Fire, Police, and Emergency Management Agencies to keep our communities safe.
