Brandon Neuman Runs for Lt Gov

State Rep. Brandon Neuman is one of the Democratic candidates for lieutenant governor.  Neuman represents part of Washington County.  The former college fullback is in his second term in the state legislature.  He's been making the rounds of area political events to meet people in this area.  Back home he was recently sited at the groundbreaking for a new welding training center in Houston, Washington County (see article in the Canon-McMillan Patch).  There's no campaign website that I can find.

If he and Brendan Boyle show up at the same events it might be easy to confuse them.  Here are some tips for telling them apart: Boyle is running for the 13th congressional district; Neuman for lt gov.  Boyle is a Brendan; Neuman is a Brandon.  Neuman is the taller of the two; Boyle is a few years older.  Neuman was first elected to the state house in 2010; Boyle in 2008.  Now you know.

Is he pro-life? What about gun control? Those would be my concerns with another western PA Democrat.

Those are good questions. Hopefully Neuman will start a campaign website with this kind of information. If time allows I'll try to look at his voting record.

I just looked at his record on project vote smart and it looks like he is pro-life, pro-driller and an NRA backed candidate.
