HARRISBURG (AP) – PA’s Democratic Party is endorsing an appellate court judge from Philadelphia, Daniel McCaffery, to be the party’s nominee for an open state Supreme Court seat in this year’s election. Party committee members voted at a meeting to endorse McCaffery over fellow appellate court judge, Deborah Kunselman of Beaver County. The primary election is May 16. Both McCaffery and Kunselman serve on the statewide Superior Court. Republicans will meet this weekend in Hershey and could vote to endorse. Three judges have met with regional Republican Party caucuses that interview candidates before holding endorsement votes.
