2025 Plum Borough Local Council Campaign Announcement (click here for more)
Just in case anyone searches the internet for my name and stumbles on my old website, my name is Phoebus Apollo and I’m a Plum, Pennsylvania resident running for Plum Borough council. This is my first political campaign and I am going to temporarily suspend my front page updates until the election is finished.
Here is a short bio to learn more about me!
Phoebus Apollo and his wife, Melanie, moved to Plum in 2019 in search of better housing opportunities and a top-tier school district for their four children. Today, their two teenagers, Emanuel and Jasmine Flournoy, are graduating from Plum Senior High, while their two young boys, Evan and Aeson Apollo, are thriving in 1st grade at Pivik Elementary and pre-K, respectively.
A seasoned IT professional, Phoebus works for a local Plum business, helping small- to medium-sized companies across the Pittsburgh area solve a wide range of computing challenges. His passion for finding solutions extends beyond his career and serves as a driving force behind his decision to run for Plum Council.
Phoebus has also made a significant impact as the web administrator for Perverted Justice, a non-profit volunteer organization that has helped expose and convict over 600 dangerous child predators. In this role, he developed a database reporting system to streamline data sharing with law enforcement and successfully authored and passed a law in the Kansas state legislature, empowering local police to conduct internet-based child predator sting operations.
Known for his commitment to independent political thinking, Phoebus is dedicated to keeping divisive national political rhetoric out of Plum’s local politics. His focus remains on fostering collaboration and implementing solutions to make Plum better.
If you see me around feel free to say hi, and let me know if you have thoughts about this community. I am always taking notes about what concerns the citizens of the Borough.
Without people to support me my campaign would be fruitless so please take a moment to review the Plum Borough Democratic Party ballot these are a bunch of great people (the link has photos and bios):

Socialism WORKS!
Socialism WORKS! is a short website presentation I put together years ago with help from a friend. It is something of a snarky take on Socialism, critical of the advantages of Socialism from various origins of the idea.
