Matt Krupp
The incumbent Dauphin County prothonotary has announced his bid for re-election.
On Tuesday, Matthew Krupp said that he planned to run for a third, four-year term. He’ll compete in the Republican primary, which takes place on May 20.
“We have made tremendous strides in terms of government efficiency the past seven years, and I look forward to continuing to serve the citizens of Dauphin County as prothonotary,” Krupp said, in a statement.
Krupp, 43, was first elected to the office in 2017 and re-elected in 2021.
Prior to becoming prothonotary, Krupp, a licensed attorney, served on the Harrisburg school board and has served as a board member of the Dauphin County Bar Association. He has also served as president of the Capitol Area Neighbors Association and, through his organization, Lighten Up Harrisburg, raised more than $80,000 to fund the replacement of the Broad Street Market sign and the LED lights on the Walnut Street Bridge.
The prothonotary is elected to a four-year term to record and file all legal papers related to the civil court. The documents may include arbitration hearings, court and civil trial arguments, building agreements, name changes, divorce certificates and landlord/tenant disputes.
