Mario Civera

Last updated

I thought that Mario Civera might be helpful in [the 2010] budget process, but given his votes on table games where he voted against filling a $250 million hole in the budget, it's pretty apparent that there are other things at play rather than his desire to help the budget, so I think he should just resign, go do the job he was elected to do here locally and then let the speaker of the House, as is his legal power, set the special election.

Governor Ed Rendell [6] [7]

Personal

Civera lives with his wife in Delaware County. He has one son, three stepsons, and seven grandchildren.
