David Oh, Philadelphia's Republican mayoral nominee, has lived in Kingsessing for six decades

David Oh's father pastored a church in Philly's Kingsessing neighborhood, and Oh has seen how Southwest Philadelphia has changed since 1963.
This video series takes each of the candidates running to be the city’s 100th Mayor back to their first neighborhoods, and the neighborhoods that, if they are lucky, will help them secure a victory.

David will do great things for the City of Philadelphia.

[@stopsign997]

It’s a shame Philadelphians will continue to vote for the same Dems who don’t do a thing.

[@crewshaw2122]

The GOP in Philly is feckless weak and offers nothing!

[@snickers8970]

I guess im labeled a democrat, but im definitely voting for Oh!

[@kenwong3423]

We need to get away from the party politics that has ruined our city. David Oh is a great choice to lead Philadelphia as our next mayor!

[@euroschmau]

A man of integrity and authenticity, can't wait to vote for you David Oh!

[@XGIRL215]

Thank you, Representative Oh, I also live in Southwest Philadelphia and I've lived here my whole life, and there isn't a time that I haven't felt that I could be a victim of crime I am also a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and I feel unbelievably unsafe, if you could just fix the crime issues in the city, you would be a history changing figure in the city and I do plan to vote for you, thank you very much and hoping you are the next mayor of the city.

[@kenwong3423]

We need a person like David Oh as our mayor! He has the strength and conviction to make the tough decisions to help Philadelphia!

[@yvonneplant9434]

I voted for Oh and I'm a Democrat.
Good luck, David!

[@f430ferrari5]

Because everybody is sick of the crime and chaos Democrats bring? Some folks never learn.
