Bob Kolankoski, chairman of the committee's third district, says it's being blown way out of proportion.
"Anyone can be written in," Kolankoski said. "He's a crackpot. He's one guy. What can he do?"
According to the county bureau of elections, Steve Smith, 42, was elected to the Republican committee with onewrite-in vote from the April 24 primary election. Smith is the regional coordinator of Keystone United, which was known until 2009 as the Keystone State Skinheads.
I would assume he voted himself into the position. LOL

People board planes everyday without the number one pilot behind the wheel. You know why it doesn’t matter because whoever is behind the wheel was qualified. So to answer your question no I wouldn’t have a problem with it.
So if you're in a plane like the one that went into the Hudson you wouldn't care if number 100 was the pilot as opposed that pilot who was one of the most qualified in the nation to handle that situation?
To say you don;t want the very best person available to do a job is pure nonsense.
I remember this, his reasoning my be wrong but hiring minorities based on them being a minority is complete BS. I wrote letter to the local newspaper that was published suggesting they hire whoever was best qualified for the job regardless of race, am I wrong?
Just so I'm absolutely sure I understand you correctly, your position is I'm wrong to expect that the best qualified teachers are hired regardless of race and you would lower those expectations to insure minorities are hired?
Yeah because you know minorities would never be the best qualified right?
You said I'm wrong, what other conclusion am I to draw other that you expect minorities to be hired based on the color of their skin? You need to spend a little more time reading and understanding what you're replying too.
I don't care if you're white, black, purple or green. In this case the only thing I want to know is your the best qualified for the job.
Best qualified is conservative code for guess what?
If you're getting on a plane do you want number one flying it or number 100?
You're either are or are not hiring based on skin color. You can try sugar coat it with the term diversity but I call it reverse discrimination. Try mandating that white teachers have to hired in schools with all black faculty and see how well that flies.... If you want to get over the racial divide it's these types of things that need to stop.
you come on here defending a white supremacist and then say.......never mind
Yeah because you know minorities would never be the best qualified right?
LOL...... The people in this discussion who's arguments would imply that minorities could not be the best qualified is those supporting hiring them based on their skin color. I'm fully aware they could be the best qualified, there is absolutely no reason they should get special consideration based on the color of their skin.
Are you of the opinion we need quotas for minorities because they couldn't be the best qualified or is your opinion the same as mine that we simply hire the best qualified for the job regardless of race?
does that somehow mitigate the fact that he was a democrat that spent how many terms in the senate? the OP is pointing out that a republican is a white supremest, but doesnt point out that there are also democrats that are also white supremests. its hypocrisy at its finest.
