So much the same, but so much different, in this Pennsylvania election year

Look closer, though, and you can see the changes. Truth be told, there are far more Trump signs than there were in 2016, even though there were a lot of Trump signs in 2016. Nonetheless, there is a deeper change that leaves you perplexed as to where this election is heading for the next 80-plus days.

First, a continuation of the visuals: There are a lot of small businesses closed out here, some with signs thanking people for their business while saying they are closing for good, some with signs that are hopeful about coming back, and some boarded up. Then, there are those that look as if they turned the lights out on March 20 fully expecting to be there the next day and just gave up hope along the way, never coming back.

Thursday had found out that Gov. Tom Wolf recommended the cancellation of all school sports statewide.

The closure will deprive the children the lessons from being part of a team, from learning to earn their way off of the bench, to the glory of winning, to the importance of working together for a common goal.

There is one thing that is for certain: While at first glance things might look the same way they did four years ago, the reality is that we are anything but the same.

She is correct about the Trump vs biden signs Trump wins 150-1 but I've seen 3 biden signs and that is more than the hildabutchbitch sings I ever saw.

Trump has picked up more Western PA support, but I don't know how that will offset the new voter fraud methods, mail in ballots and new registration in grave yards via the burial records.

Every new death becomes automatically registered as a new demonRAT voter using the graveyard as their new address. Covid deaths get three votes.

I remain very optimistic that PA will go Trump, bigly, but I do worry about voter fraud.

Pennsylvania has a man who pretends to be a woman as their health secretary.

I am rather disturbed that the GOP here in PA seems to be onboard with mail-in voting.

A bill making that easier to do passed our Republican majority legislature last October. I am getting cards in the mail from the State GOP urging me to request my mail-in ballot.

Either they have a plan to outplay the Democrats at their own game or they are going to deliberately tank it here.

I have to believe that Emperor Wolf’s unilateral decisions are driving voters to the Republican side.

I cannot wait to vote against this egotistical idiot... again.

Me either. I am just wondering if my vote will ever be counted if I have to cast it by mail.

Requesting a mail in ballot is An “absentee ballot”. What Dems want is that EVERYONE gets one in the mail.
