Editor’s Note: PoliticsPA Upgrade

Hi all,

Just a heads up to the best readers in the state, PoliticsPA is upgrading its server today. The site will become static around 5pm Thursday. Optimistically, it might return later Thursday depending on the DNS. It could be as early as Friday afternoon – but more likely Saturday or Sunday. Thanks for your patience.

In the mean time, we will be posting stories here: http://politicspa-temporary.blogspot.com/

This should resolve the throttling issue, when the site is busy and some of you have reported seeing a database error message (screenshot below).

It’s a good problem; our traffic is now about three times higher than last year and ten times more than when the current server was chosen. We figured better to upgrade now, rather than have the site crash on primary day.

Thanks for your patience.
