Strangely enough, the MSM ignoring reality does not tend to change it...

These are not battleground districts. More registered Republicans than Democrats.

Nothing to be impressed about.

“Seats flipped from R to D Pennsylvania State Senate District 37 (April 2)”

If I remember correctly that district was re-drawn in a way that almost guaranteed a D win prior to the election, and thanks to a D appointed judge.

I tend to view state legislatures as analogous to the AA and AAA farm system in Major League Baseball.
They are great training grounds for players who want to move up to the ‘Show’ in DC.
However, it is vitally important to rack up victories in these ‘minor league’ arenas as well

I’d caution giving too much weight to a small number of local races with low numbers of voters. Completely local issues and individual candidate qualities dwarf the effects of national sentiment in these cases.

Don't forget the Wisconsin Supreme Court seat back in the spring where was all the polls showed the democrat winning by double digits against a pro traditional marriage conservative Christian Republican. Until the votes were actually counted and the Republican won.

Tax-It-All Tommie Wolf is back on the warpath, doing brazenly Leftist things. He had gone into stealth mode for a time after losing some bloody initial battles with the GOP legislature.

The more he acts-up and reminds Pennsylvanians how Liberal he is, the more GOP prospects improve.
