For Immediate Release

BRYN MAWR, Pa./EWORLDWIRE/March 7, 2008 --- Republican State Senate candidate Lisa Paolino today announced that she has raised more than $100,000 for her state Senate campaign since mid-February.

Paolino, a Radnor Commissioner and life-long Republican, began raising money in earnest in mid-February, after she had filed her petition signatures to the Department of State to secure her spot on the GOP Primary ballot.

"Obviously I am gratified and thrilled with the terrific financial response I have received in the past few weeks," said Paolino, who last week was unanimously endorsed by the Radnor GOP Committee. "Having now raised more than $100,000, I am confident that I can run an aggressive campaign to win the Republican Primary, and then take this seat back for the GOP in November."

Earlier, it was announced that Paolino had submitted 25 percent more petition signatures from GOP voters than her primary opponent.

"I believe the progress we have made recently both politically and financially demonstrates to Republican voters that I am the best candidate for the 17th state Senate District," said Paolino.

Paolino is a graduate of Villanova University with more than 20 years of professional business experience, most recently as Vice President of Operations and Marketing for Mace Securities. She also serves as Vice-Chair of the American Red Cross Board of Directors SEPA Chapter and the Board of Directors of the Wayne Art Center.

As a Commissioner, Paolino has worked to hold the line on taxes. She has worked to acquire more than 50 acres of open space and is a liaison with the Radnor Conservancy, working to secure open space on one of the largest remaining parcels of farmland in the area.

Paolino completed two notable projects with Penn DOT, including the sound barrier retrofit along Rte. 476 and the award winning Radnor Rails to Trails Project.

In 1999 Paolino was the first woman in Radnor history elected to a full four-year term as Commissioner; she has served as Vice-President of the Board since 2003. She serves as Chair of the Parks & Recreation Committee and as a member of the Finance & Audit, Open Space, Public Health, and Library Committees. She has two children and lives in Bryn Mawr.

The 17th State Senate District is comprised of Radnor and Haverford townships in Delaware County, and the towns of Bridgeport, Conshohocken, West Conshohocken, Narberth, Norristown, East Norriton, Lower Merion, Plymouth and Upper Merion in Montgomery County.
