Seen at the polls: First time voter, Trump ‘MAGA’ fans and an abortion rights supporter

At age 76, Faye Gandy of Nanticoke voted for the first time Tuesday.

She visited the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers training center to cast her ballot for Vice President Kamala Harris to be the next president of the United States.

“I am kind of excited over this, maybe because of her. I’m 76, I just want to do it at least once to see what it’s about,” said Gandy, who registered to vote as a Republican last year, noting she didn’t know what party she belonged to until looking at her registration card Tuesday. “It’s not just because she’s a woman. I like what she says. I don’t like some of the things Trump says.”

High voter turnout and enthusiasm were reported throughout the Wyoming Valley, many inspired to vote in the race between Harris, the Democrat, and former President Donald Trump, the Republican.

Ed Harry, 78, a longtime local Democrat and union leader who has supported Trump since 2016, voted for the former president at the 109th Field Artillery Armory in Plymouth wearing a “MAGA” hat standing for Trump’s vow to “Make America Great Again.”

He said Trump represented the working class these days like the Democrats did in the past.

Plus, the administration of President Joe Biden and Harris has been a failure, Harry said.

“The last four years have been horrendous. Inflation is terrible. I don’t…

State’s survey of juvenile striped bass shows low spawning count for sixth consecutive year

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources announced results of this year’s juvenile striped bass survey, which tracks the reproductive success of Maryland’s state fish in the Chesapeake Bay. The 2024 young-of-year index is 2.0, well below the long-term average of 11.0, and marks the sixth consecutive year of poor reproduction.

“These results underscore the complexity of managing a coastal migratory species whose life-cycle is influenced by environmental conditions during a brief spawning period,” said Maryland DNR Fishing and Boating Services Director Lynn Fegley.

“We will continue to explore ways to conserve and enhance the spawning population during this time when we are adding fewer young fish to the population.”

During this annual survey, fishery managers examine 22 sites located in four major striped bass spawning areas: the Choptank, Nanticoke, and Potomac rivers, and the upper Chesapeake Bay. Biologists visit each site three times per summer, collecting fish with two sweeps of a 100-foot beach seine net. The index represents the average number of young-of-year striped bass found in each sample. The juvenile striped bass  average less than 3 inches long and are not usually encountered by anglers.

Similar fish surveys conducted this summer in the Patapsco, Magothy, Rhode, West, Miles, and Tred Avon rivers found fewer striped bass, also known as rockfish.

Biologists captured more than 56,000 fish of 56 different species while conducting this year’s survey. Encouraging results were documented regarding two species lower on the food chain. Menhaden abundance was nearly equal to last year, which was the highest measured since 1990. Spot abundance was the highest measured since 1988.

These species are vital to the ecology of the Bay as a food source for many other species of fish and wildlife.

Efforts to rebuild the Atlantic Coast population of striped bass have been ongoing for several years. Although…

H.S. Football: Hanover Area hangs on to defeat rival Nanticoke Area

Oct. 26—NANTICOKE — The rivalry game between Hanover Area and Nanticoke Area is known as the San Souci Struggle.

Both teams had their struggles Friday night — Hanover Area with penalties and Nanticoke Area with turnovers.

Hanover Area, though, was able to overcome its issues for a 16-14 victory in the Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2 game.

Hanover Area (1-4 Div. 2, 2-8 overall) came into Friday night with a remote chance of catching Tunkhannock for the final District 2 Class 3A playoff spot. Tunkhannock lost, but the Hawkeyes’ chances of doing so did not look promising based on the district standings late Friday night.

The victory ended an eight-game losing streak to Nanticoke Area. The Hawkeyes last won the game in 2015.

“Getting that trophy, it’s I think the first time in 10 years,” Hanover Area coach Jason Majiros said.

Nanticoke Area (1-4 Div. 2, 1-9) ended a season which started with first-year coach Scott Dennis dying three days before the opener. Former coach Ron Bruza oversaw the program the rest of the season. He has no intention of returning for 2025, and the school district has been advertising for the head coaching position.

“It’s a lot of ups and downs,” said Bruza, who resigned after 14 years following the 2023 season. “I love this program, I love this community. I appreciated the members of the school board who supported me in coming back. I’m very appreciative of my wife and my family to make some sacrifices to get me to come back.

“It’s been a roller coaster ride right from the beginning in losing your dear friend in coach Dennis. We just really didn’t get a lot done in the win column, but the guys have a lot of character and they’re first-class kids.”

The Hawkeyes were able to prevail despite 16 penalties for 125 yards, an…
