I don't live in PA and I think we can assume Fetterman will be Bad and get Worse the more everyone learns about him, but according to people I know in Philly Kenyatta is 100% lib (apparently endorsed Biden in April... of 2019!!!??)

Sean Parnell had an ad where he talked about how he got a traumatic brain injury in Afghanistan. Probably not the best strategy to tell your potential voters that your brain is all hosed up.

Brian Fitzpatrick seems like the best republican candidate to win a statewide race next year. He’s got a track of record of over performing in The suburbs. Can’t think of anyone else they would field and right now the only declared candidates are the Uber chud Gale brothers.

Young people are leaving those counties like crazy and any population increases they've seen in the past twenty years are people deliberately self-segregating from Allegheny County, same stuff is happening with Butler County.

the trade off is that cities are becoming even more blue and the philly suburbs are competitive for democrats after being pretty much a lock for republicans for decades.

dems won the MontCo commissioners majority for the first time ever in 2011 and DelCo in 2017.

A new challenger has entered the ring!

Democrat Dr. Val Arkoosh, chair of the Montgomery County Commissioners has jumped into the senate race.

She is....meh, a very run of the mill suburban democrat. She's got the 2nd most name recognition behind Fetterman.

Also a couple new losers on the gop side. Jeff Bartos, failed lt governor candidate and Kathy Barnette, failed congressional candidate.

I have a special dislike for Kathy Barnette because I live in the 4th district that she ran for (and lost by like 30 points) and her campaign was basically the Covid spreading tour at the height of the pandemic going to peoples backyards and houses and cramming as many people into a small space that would come listen to her ramble on about "I'm a black woman AND a republican! I shouldn't exist but i do!"

Still, I think this is a winnable race for the GOP but not by any of the losers who've currently declared

Philly DA race getting wild

"GOP DA CAndidate” posted:

In short, the best way to start with this is the Medical Examiner's report stating that her BAC was .45 and the cause of death was alcohol intoxication. But because she was found in my tub, everyone, including myself, assumed she drowned. So many empty vodka bottles were found, it looked like there was a party in my house, but inspection of the security video of people entering and leaving showed only her.

Two of them give the power to declare emergencies solely to the legislature. One of them allows private for-profit ambulance services to get cheap loans from the state. Those are all hard 'no' votes.

The other one codifies equal rights under the state constitution and should be a yes.

Thanks.

Wasn’t there also one something about grants for paid or volunteer fire departments?

Edit: I guess that’s the cheap loans, vote no,

Also fuckin lol at giving the chud legislature emergency powers, the entire point is to hurt the state when there's a democrat governor (always going forward)
