Darcelle Slappy will be on the ballot as a Green Party challenger to State Representative Aaron Bernstine this fall, barring a successful challenge to her candidacy. That’s according to the Pennsylvania Department of State. Slappy is a 43-year-old Beaver Falls resident and Big Beaver Falls Area School board member. She filed the necessary paperwork and submitted at least 317 voter signatures to have her name placed on the ballot. Slappy – who has been a Democrat – said last week that she decided to run under the Green Party banner after Bernstine – a Republican from New Beaver – won the Republican AND Democratic nominations in the May primary. Slappy says her platform was about education, health care for all Pennsylvanians and job creation in the district, which includes Beaver Falls, New Brighton and Ellwood City.
