Wow, they decided not to endorse at all? I stand both corrected and pleasantly surprised!

She's pretty much a lock for the DCC endorsement. If you (rhetorically) want Rynehart or anyone else, plan now to volunteer for the campaign. They're going to need the help.

This too although I imagine it's not easy to tow a semi filled with beer kegs or whatever.
For what it's worth, this would also benefit regular drivers so it's really a win/win situation.
I think NYC has designated streets only for semi/delivery parking but I have no idea how Philly would handle those logistics.

They are ticketed multiple times a day. The companies don't care, it's a cost of doing business for them. Make the tickets $500 and they might start to care.

Has anyone heard about a traffic box on Sunday? I saw something on Next Door that they'd be blocking off traffic beginning in the 3rd quarter but can't find anything to confirm it.
Edit: thanks!

One time I was working on the campaign for someone running for a citywide office. He had known and worked work Rebecca and they got along great. I ran into her and invited him to his campaign kickoff event and she didn't even blink before she told me "I don't think that would be appropriate." She didn't even feel bad when she told me no lol, almost seemed annoyed that I asked.
She's right, it wouldn't have been appropriate, but that didn't stop anyone else. Sucked for me, but came away very impressed.

That's patently ridiculous. He's not her running mate, he's just going to vote for her.

Same for me, from SoCal. People in my hometown more POLITE but in terms of friendly, it's hard to beat Philly.
