Lon Emenheiser

I just returned a call from Lon Emenheiser of York, the Republican candidate for the state House of Representatives' 95th district. He wanted to clarify something from an earlier blog entry.

I mentioned that he and his wife moved here from North Carolina a few yearss back, which is true. But I presented them as relative newcomers to the area.

Mr. Emenhesier wanted to explain that he's actually a native of the region. He went to Eastern High School. Aside from a stint in the Air Force and he and his wife's relatively brief residence in North Carolina, he's lived in the area most of his life.

"I'm a Yorker," he explained.

And for the record, Mr. Emenheiser wasn't the least bit snippy about it. I Iike that in a candidate.
