Democratic congressional candidate Mike Parrish won the endorsement of State Senator Andy Dinniman today.
“Mike Parrish is a common sense problem solver, and we need him fighting for us in Congress. He understands the importance of education as a key to greater opportunities for our children and future growth for Pennsylvania families,” said Dinniman. “We need his leadership and extensive business experience to make the right decisions when it comes to creating more jobs and a better business climate for promising new companies. As our Congressman, Mike Parrish will be a true advocate for the people of Chester County and the Sixth Congressional District.”
“I’m grateful to Senator Dinniman for his years of selfless service to Chester County and continued support of my candidacy to represent Chester, Berks,Montgomery and Lebanon Counties in Congress,” Parrish responded. “His sage advice and continued mentorship mean a lot to me, as we embark upon this campaign to change Washington.”
Dinniman, a former Chester County Commissioner, has served as State Senator of the 19th district since 2006.
The Sixth Congressional District consists of parts of Chester, Montgomery, Berks and Lebanon Counties.
Parrish’s Democratic primary opponent is West Whiteland Township Supervisor Joe Denham. They are competing to take on freshman GOP Congressman Ryan Costello.

Joe Denham withdrew. When he filed his quarterly report with the FEC on October 1, he terminated his campaign committee.
im sure parrish has been trying hard to clear the D field before he has to file his financial statements showing where he’s making his money. but come on with this guy. a simple google search turns up a lot of shady business practices like violations and struggling to pay the bills http://biz.yahoo.com/e/150902/dlov8-k.html
When are the democrats going to realize this guy is just an opportunist on a vanity project. They need to look closely at his business dealings in the oil & gas industry along with his relationships with investors. Dinniman is just as much a republican as this guy. He has been the reason democrats don’t get ahead in Chester county. This seat will never go democratic with this guy running.
“Parrish is another damn Republican.” There – fixed that for ya, Andy.
A Big Oil trojan horse is the LAST thing we need in Fracksylvania. I wonder how much Big Oil paid Andy?
