A former Westmoreland County Commissioner has been selected to fill the term of Commissioner Gina Cerilli Thrasher as she will be leaving the office soon.
The Trib reports that Ted Kopas was named by a panel of Westmoreland County Common Pleas Court Judges to take her place for the remaining five months of her term. He was commissioner for over a decade, but lost to Thrasher in the 2019 primary.
Thrasher is leaving office to take a position as a worker’s compensation appeals board member.
