2 Seek South Whitehall Commissioner Seats

Incumbents Christina 'Tori' Morgan and Tom Johns are seeking re-election to the South Whitehall Board of Commissioners.

Two four-year seats are available on the board.

Morgan, who is currently board president, and Johns, who is assistant secretary, are the only two seeking the Repubican nomination for the seats in the May 21 primary.

There are no Democratic candidates seeking their party's nod, according to an unofficial list from the Lehigh County voter registration office.

Morgan, who had served on the township planning board, is seeking her second four-year term of the board of commissioners. She was first appointed to the board to fill out former commissioner Gary Search's unexpired term and then ran for a full four-year term in 2009.  In addition to serving as board president, she serves on several internal subcommittees and represents the township on the Western Lehigh Chamber of Commerce and the Lehigh Valley Planning Commission.

Johns, a private building contractor, also is seeking his second term. He is a Republican committee member in South Whitehall's District 8 and serves on the board of Treatment Trends in Allentown.
