Summary: The article in the Delaware County Times was published May 18, 2014 by the Associated Press. It is about where each Democratic candidate stands on key issues that many voters will care about. The article is less of a news piece and more of a summary of each candidate's opinions and standings on abortion rights, education, health care, minimum wage and other issues they were asked about during the Pennsylvania Democratic Gubernatorial Primary Debate.

The information in this article could be used to help voters decide on the candidate that best represents their views and opinions. They may change their minds about supporting a certain candidate after reading this article, or it may solidify their opinions before voting. From this article I learned that every Democratic candidate supports raising the minimum wage to at least to $10.10 per hour. The information could be used to show that Corbett's standing on minimum wage, education and natural gas drilling are all opposed by the Democrats. The author of the article does not have an opinion on any of the candidates or at least does not show his/her opinion through any tone in writing. The article could affect people's decisions before they vote in the primary.
