The top two fundraisers will be the top two vote-getters because they are the most qualified candidates. But that "Sea Ready" fellow plainly is best prepared for the next big earthquake.

Mike Kasperzak is the most qualified person in the race... He has years of council/legislative experience and he has the accomplishments to show for it. Plus, he's aware of the crisises currently, and has plans to solve them. I'm generally pro-woman, but Veenker hasn't put in the time, and won't be able to learn how to actually do the job before term limits sweep her out; and Berman hasn't been effective. I think they just know a ton of rich people.

What good do you think Kasperzak has done? What "plans" do you think he has?

Kasperzak is very wealthy and knows far more rich people than anyone else in this race. The main reason he isn't receiving contributions, frankly, is that people know Marc Berman is the best option: the only progressive Democrat in this race with experience as an elected official.
Anyone who cares about issues of education, housing, and public transportation should vote for Marc Berman in the primaries.

@PA Weekly - Since there might not be another report until after the election, it's worth keeping an eye on the late independent expenditures for this race
As seen here:

Berman seems to be receiving a lot of last minute -under the radar- support from lobbying groups (dentists and realtors)
