Forbes was state GOP's Mr. February

MILFORD — The Republican Party of Pennsylvania has selected Pike County Commissioner Harry Forbes as its Republican of the Month. A statement at its Web site www.pagop.org reads, “Last month, a team of more than 40 PA GOP staffers and volunteers traveled up to Massachusetts in order to elect Scott Brown to the United States Senate. Ask any one of those volunteers about Pike County Commissioner Harry Forbes, however, and you’ll be sure to put a smile on their faces, “Throughout the course of the trip, Commissioner Forbes proved his commitment to electing qualified Republican candidate on numerous occasions. From phone banking and knocking on doors to tracking voter turnout and inspiring the PA GOP ‘Special Forces’ on the bus, Commissioner Forbes, like all of our wonderful grassroots leaders, was always eager to do whatever was asked of him and more. “An excellent leader, a great public servant and an even better person, the PA GOP is proud to honor Pike County Commissioner Harry Forbes as February Republican of the Month.”
