Robert Guzzardi is no longer in the race

Summary: Republican Bob Guzzardi, a previous contender in the governor's race, has been forced to leave due to the state Supreme Court's decision. Without Guzzardi in the race, Tom Corbett will be the only Republican in the race. The reason for Guzzardi's forced departure was his inability to file a statement of financial interests with the state Ethics Commission. Though the likelihood of Guzzardi getting anywhere in the governor's race was very slim, many expected him to be Tom Corbett's competition.

The article in the Patriot-News is about Bob Guzzardi's forced departure from the governor's race. I learned that Guzzardi was the only Republican challenging Corbett. This information could be used to show that Corbett has more of a chance of winning now that he doesn't have to focus on anyone but the Democrats. The author of the article does not seem to have an opinion on the matter. The article is neutral in tone. The article may be used to show that Corbett will have an easier time running in the governor's race.
