It's a big year for the presidential primary election, which hits Pennsylvania on Tuesday, April 24. Though the GOP presidential race has become somewhat heated over the past several months, GOP candidate Rick Santorum ended his bid for the GOP presidential nomination, several sources reported earlier this month.

Mitt Romney, who made a campaign stop at The Iron Shop in Broomall April 4, is now likely to be the Republican presidential candidate in November.

Locally, this year's primary election is geared towards installing the next committee party chairs for each district or precinct. There are no contested races in Springfield. Each candidate listed is running for a 4-year term as committee chair for their respective township's ward/precinct.
