2021 Primary Election Day In Lansdale: Who's On The Ballot

LANSDALE, PA — The 2021 primary election in Pennsylvania is just around the corner, and several municipal races are on the ballot for local voters to decide.

Many of the races that appear on the ballots are uncontested in the primary, meaning that the only real decision voters will need to make will come in the general election in November.

However, there are some important primary races that will be determined May 18, not to mention the ballot questions on proposed constitutional amendments.

Here's a glance at what voters will see in the Lansdale area:

In the North Penn School Directors race, eight candidates are running for four open spots. All eight have cross-filed as both Democrats and Republicans, meaning this primary is especially crucial. On the ballot are Christian Fusco, Tina Stoll, Jessie Bradica, Jonathan Kassa, Michael Kennedy, Harry Snyder, and Frederick Froehilich.

On the Democratic side, Ward 1 has two open seats; Rachel Bollens and Mary Fuller are the only two candidates on the ballot.

Democratic voters in Ward 3 have a decision to make: they must choose two from a field of Mark Ladley, Carrie Hawkins Charlton, and Mohammad Fakrul Islam.

The Magisterial District Judge race in 38-1-28 is also between two cross-filing candidates, Ed Levine and Patrick Hanrahan, so that race will not be formally decided until the general election in November.
