March 23, 2004) SUBMITTED: March 30, 2004 CONCURRING OPINION MR. JUSTICE NIGRO Filed: June 24, 2004 Although I continue to disagree with this Court’s per curiam affirmance in In re: Nomination Petition of Anastasio, 820 A.2d 880 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2003), affd. per curiam, 827 A.2d 373 (Pa. 2003), I am able to join in the majority’s disposition of the instant matter, as I believe that Benninghoff should be allowed to remain on the ballot, just as I believed Anastasio should have been allowed to remain on the ballot.
