MONTGOMERY COUNTY – Hagaman resident Rita Francesa Loffredo Friday announced her intention to run as the Democratic Party candidate for Montgomery County Executive.
She said she also intends to seek the endorsement of the Conservative Party and the Working Families Party.
“I think that there are lot of issues in Montgomery County that aren’t being addressed,” she said. “Someone needs to have the courage to stand up and ask these questions. I think we need to have someone who really understands the problems of working class people.”
Loffredo, 23, is a political newcomer. She has the support of Montgomery County Democratic Committee Chairman Terry Bieniek and would be the first Democrat to run for county executive since the first election for that position in 2013 when incumbent Republican Matt Ossenfort ran against former St. Johnsville Supervisor Dominick Stagliano, a Democrat.
