"Republican turnout, on the other hand, could be extraordinary, reaching 40 percent or higher - well beyond the 20 percent range in which it has lagged for two decades, Harris said."

I believe turnout will be even higher in the general when it really sets in that they actually have a real alternative against the establishment.

Based on talking with blue collar/union guys out here I think CA is in for a surprise too...

Final line in this piece: “”Republican voters,” he said “are energized.”

Figures the Inky would find a 'life long Republican' that
spouts the left's talking points. The problem that I have
with the GOPe is their absolute unwillingness to thwart
Dear Leader Obozo.

....GOP disgruntlement among the blue-collar whites of the Philadelphia suburbs....

Some wag just published a piece in the past couple months that said he would be happy when these type of people were gone...that they deserved to die. I think it was published in the National Review.

Back in March Trump ran up big margins in OH counties that border PA.

He’ll do very well in western PA and the Philly suburbs on Tuesday.

If trump builds the wall and creates fair trade instead of free trade, he will live up to 90% of his mandate.

Out of curiosity I just looked up the New York primary totals from 2008. Trump had a higher turnout in 2016 (NY) than McCain and Rommney combined did in 2008. Trump pulled 14K more votes than the two republican front runners in 2008.

And that primary was really early in the year, which would have meant higher turnout. Huh.

PA has that whole delegate/blind voting thing. Now we just had a rules change in NY late last summer - The Party Leaders get to select ALL of the delegates regardless of who wins. It used to be that the candidates got to select their own delegates, but The Party Leaders just took it upon themselves to do what they think is best. For The Party.

Viewed that way - Trump may have more of a chance to get loyal delegates in PA despite the rules than he may ultimately wind up with in NY despite his YUGE win here.

TODAY’S WSJ/NBC poll has Hillary BEATING Trump in Pennsylvania.

Hillary 55% vs. Trump 40%

Liberal/moderate Republicans just do NOT win elections, even IF they pretend to change their minds JUST BEFORE DECIDING TO RUN like Trump and Romney did!

Astute conservatives can see right through it, and some will stay home.

Bringing back rule of law and pulling the country in a positive direction and his Presidency will be considered a success.

>>>Fewer college degrees and more economic woes instead have made such places fertile ground for the message, and the candidacy, of Trump<<<

Oh, I get it. Slip in a condescending blurb for good measure.
