Full house at Sturgis Recreation Center today as Pete Lyde thanked members of the 61st Ward Democratic Committee for re-electing him as Ward Leader, State Representative Anthony Bellmon as Vice Chair and elected board members as well.

Pete ran unopposed and was elected by a unanimous vote, a testament to the confidence and support of the committee. Congratulations to both leaders, and thank you to everyone who continues to work to strengthen our community and move Philadelphia forward.
