Bompiani Rally Kicks Off Campaign

Although the election is not until 2008, an estimated 450 supporters crowded the Youngwood Volunteer Fire Department on Sunday evening to rally behind the recently announced candidacy of Dr. Anthony (Tony) Bompiani for the Pennsylvania State Senate, 39th District.

In addressing attendees that included a number of local elected officials, Bompiani stressed the importance of bringing confidence and leadership back to the office, and cited the strong need for tax reform, open records and fiscal responsibility.

Bompiani has served on the Hempfield Area School District Board of Directors for 12 years, including five as President.

Dr. Bompiani to Run for State Senate

Hempfield Area school director and chiropractor Anthony Bompiani on Thursday announced he will run for the state Senate seat held by Republican Bob Regola.

Bompiani, 53, said the early start to his 2008 campaign was necessary to make his name recognizable to Democrats, who outnumber Republicans in the 39th District by a 3-2 margin.

Bompiani is one of several Democrats who have indicated they plan to challenge Regola next year, but the first to make his intentions official.

He said his campaign will focus on improving public education and working to keep young adults in the region by increasing job opportunities.

"I want to give people honest representation with integrity," Bompiani said.
