Carneyval

I stumbled across this Letter today in the Susquehanna Indepdent:
Carney parade presence offensive to parade goers

The behavior of Chris Carney and his political operatives during the recent July 4th parade in Montrose was obnoxious and reprehensible.

After finishing the route, Carney's operatives proceeded to return to the route of the parade, dog and harass the Republican float with Carney campaign signs, and then march up and down the route with their signs obstructing the view of the parade along the Bartron-Myer Funeral Home/Community Bank area.

Is this really the kind of behavior we want from our elected representatives?

Carney must figure he's in trouble to stoop to such obnoxious tactics. Perhaps it's time to put an end to this Carneyval in November.

At the very least KLR needs to take the politics out of the parade.

We came to enjoy a day with friends and family - not to be harassed by self-serving politicians and their obnoxious operatives.

I post this hoping that someone (ideally anyone who attended) could put this letter in some more context. Maybe provide some additional details?
