Janet Peckinpaugh to Play with the Big Boys
You remember Janet Peckinpaugh, don't you? In the early 80's, she was a weather forecaster on Channel 12 and worked with Gene Cox. She moved on from weather forecasting to news anchoring on Channel 8, at that time, in Petersburg, later becoming an anchor on NBC, which is brought to you as part of basic Dish Network packages.
Now do you remember? Well, our sweet Ms. Peckinpaugh has announced she plans to run as a Republican for Congress. Her political prospect will be determined on May 21, 2010 when Republicans in that State Caucus will vote.
Peckinpaugh hopes to run against Joe Courtney in the 2nd District. She brings with her almost 30 years of journalism experience, which she attributes to her ability to listen, get the facts, and ask for answers.
