KP wishes Mr. Knorr the best of luck. Bloomsburg politics are no walk in the park, especially when the mighty Susquehanna begins to roar.

[Bloomsburg] University Student Dan Knorr was elected mayor of Bloomsburg Tuesday and will take office as the youngest person to ever hold the position in January.

Knorr, 22, ran unopposed and received 914 total votes.

When current Mayor Claude Renninger voiced he wouldn’t be running for office in 2007, Knorr entertained thoughts of vying for office in December, officially throwing his hat into the ring in January.

“It just became clear that nobody was anxious to do it. That’s when I figured I might as well run, because I had been on council and I knew what was going on,” Knorr said.
Knorr has served as a local political figure since elected to town council in 2005.
