Patsy Ray is on the November Ballot for Coatesville Area School Board? Didn’t she lose the Primary?

From Voter Services:

 Well it looks like the voters on the Democratic side in Coatesville spoke and they elected Paul L Johnson by a whopping 42.17 % margin. So Paul Johnson is the only person on the November Ballot for School Director Coatesville Region 1 with a D after his name right?

NOPE

Remember, this is Chester County that Machiavellian Shangri-La of Republican politics that makes up its own law in darkened corridors. 

This information is from a phone call I made to Chester County Voter Services today:

Ballot for Tuesday November 8, 2011

SCHOOL DIRECTOR COATESVILLE REGION 1

DIANE BROWNFEILD R

PAUL JOHNSON          R

PAUL JOHNSON          D

PATSY RAY                   D

Vote for 2

Evidently Voter Services decided the Democratic Voters in Coatesville needed a choice and they “elected” Patsy Ray as that choice.

I thought voters decided elections. Guess I was wrong.
