Scott Wagner, the Republican candidate for governor, spent Sunday afternoon at his campaign office at 9545 Bustleton Ave.

Wagner, a businessman and former state senator, has proposed to eliminate school property taxes, add safety measures and armed guards at schools and reverse Gov. Tom Wolf’s moratorium on the death penalty. He’d also address Philadelphia’s high rates of poverty, homelessness and violence.

Tracy Wagner accompanied her husband to the campaign office.

The event was Wagner’s 738th of the campaign.

Others in attendance included ward leaders Tom Matkowski and Matt Wolfe; Mike Tomlinson, last year’s Republican candidate for city controller; and Irina Goldstein, who will be seeking an at-large City Council seat next year.

The election is Tuesday. ••
