Sharon Herald:Mercer County Democrats face eviction from headquarters over unpaid rent
LinkSHARON – Leadership on the Mercer County Democrat Committee is split over whether the party has been locked out of its headquarters on Vine Avenue, even though the property’s owner has posted an eviction notice on the door of the building.
Diane Syphrit and Mercer County Commissioner Tim McGonigle, who won seats on the state Democratic Committee according to unofficial results from Tuesday’s election, said that the headquarters’ locks at 16 Vine Ave. in downtown Sharon had been changed, a contention that county Democrat chairman Ryan Mergl disputes.
“No, the locks were not changed,” Mergl said. “Tim is full of misinformation because he never comes around, by the way.”
The small office space on Vine Avenue, across from Mergl’s law practice, is in a building owned by HomeTown Community Rentals.
