Mitchell to challenge Rep Wright in 159th District race
Chester-Upland School Director Edward Mitchell announced his bid against state Rep. Robert Wright for the 159th District seat in the May 1984 primary. Mitchell, a GOP veteran and education advocate, argues for more district freedom and less government. Wright predicted easy reelection, while a local NAACP leader warned Mitchell would face strong opposition from Chester’s Black community.
