Ware Leadership at Philadelphia Threatened by Election
William B Vare’s grip on Philadelphia Republican machine appears weakened after a Tuesday election.

Several top officials lost wards to Democrats, signaling internal rifts and challenges to the organization’s control, particularly in the fourth district where Golder was defeated in primaries.
