Some interesting numbers.
“In Pennsylvania, the Ukraine vote could prove pivotal”
“In addition to the estimated 100,000 Ukrainian-Americans in Pennsylvania, Polish-Americans make up about 5 percent of the state’s population, and it has significant populations of Americans with heritage from Baltic states and other eastern-European nations that are often concerned about their homelands being on the frontline of Russian aggression. “
“Pennsylvania is also one of the main beneficiaries of U.S. aid to Ukraine, with eight congressional districts home to manufacturing companies producing military equipment either shipped to Kyiv or backfilling U.S. stocks, benefiting from the overall $121 billion spent in the U.S. since Russia’s full-scale invasion was launched in February 2022.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky singled out Scranton in his trip to the U.S. this week on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, visiting a munitions factory to thank workers for their contribution. “
““I think that, undoubtedly, there’s bipartisan support for Ukraine in Congress, both the Senate and the House, and that is a bipartisan majority that is greater than exists on most other issues that face Congress,” said Euguen Luciw, president of the Philadelphia regional branch of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America, which advocates local and federal governments.”
“Leaders of Pennsylvania’s 800,000 strong Polish community put out a letter of support for Harris following the Sep. 10 presidential debate where she name-checked the community’s influence while criticizing Trump’s antagonism toward Kyiv and deference toward Russian President Vladimir Putin. “
I don’t imagine it will matter to the people under discussion, but —
When Obama was president, Putin invaded Crimea and expanded Russia.
When Biden was president, Putin invaded Ukraine and expanded Russia.
When Trump was president, Putin had the good sense not to try anything.
If Ukrainian-Americans, and Polish-Americans in PA want to keep a lid on Putin, they should NOT vote for the Democrat.
Leaders put out,
Hummm
Like leaders of unions whos members don’t agree with their letters?
Just a thought
