Frank Sinatra running for supervisor
CORAOPOLIS — This Frank Sinatra isn't the 'Chairman of the Board' — but he is running for a spot on the board of supervisors in Moon Township.
Frank W. Sinatra Jr., 38, realizes he has the kind of name recognition that most political candidates would die for.
Residents of this township are sometimes ho-hum when he knocks on their door to campaign — until they hear his name, Sinatra said.
"I had a person offer to buy me some color contacts because I have brown eyes," Sinatra said, referring to one of the late singer's nicknames, Ol' Blue Eyes.
Sinatra said he's a third-generation Frank Sinatra. His grandfather, who lives in nearby Stowe Township, changed his last name when he immigrated, taking the name from his hometown in Sicily.
