Daniel Repovz, graduate student at Duquesne University, has joined the
reform-minded team at Elect.Rauterkus.com to drive Mark Rauterkus' election
bid onto Pittsburgh's City Council. Repovz' title is Media Coordinator. The
special election is slated for the first Tuesday in March, 2006.
In May 2005, Repovz was on the ballot for Mayor of Pittsburgh in the
Democratic Primary.
Repovz earned an undergraduate degree at the University of Pittsburgh in
Finance. This semester at Duquesne brings Repovz's final course before he
obtains a Masters Degree in Business Administration.
Rauterkus and Repovz were both on the campaign trails in 2005. While Repovz
was debating Bob O'Connor, Bill Peduoto, and Michael Lamb for the Democratic
endorsement for mayor, Rauterkus was seeking a State Senate seat in a campaign
against Wayne Fontana, D, and Michael Diven, R.
"We saw each other many times at various community forums. I was flattered to
hear from Daniel that he was greatly impressed with the way we ran our
campaign for State Senate, especially with the negativity and gross
expenditures from the competitors. The messages and the mission must have
resonated with Daniel, thankfully," said Rauterkus.
Repovz said, "I want to be part of the driving force in a team Rauterkus
victory. Mark's financial reforms and parks initiatives will win with voters
and future generations of all ages: children, parents, students and seniors.
These are vital quality of life issues that are very important to Pittsburgh's
future as well as the region around Pittsburgh."
In the day-to-day operations of the campaign, Repovz will issue press releases
and field analysis to reform Pittsburgh's financial position.
"With the advance leadership ability of Daniel and others, we will be able to
offer solutions for the short-term and long-term," said Rauterkus.
Vicki Duesch, a parent and long-time South Side resident and homeowner, has
been named the campaign manager for the Elect.Rauterkus.com campaign.
"Vicki brings heart and soul to the campaign. Vicki and her son bike daily on
the paths around the South Side and continually access recreation resources in
the third district," said Rauterkus. "Vicki is a wonderful example of a
citizen leader in action. Her grassroots leadership will make a difference in
Pittsburgh and our region."
