I like seeing him get out in front of this. Don’t let them drag this on “looking” for votes.

https://x.com/thejcoop/status/1854537645994414160 is a much better source and my head doesn’t catch on fire from all the garbage on those ‘news’ web sites.

Excellent. Now all he has to do is actually be proven right — and be ready to fight when the numbers go sour, even after any recount.

Anyone who doesn’t know what PA can do with belated vote counts has completely forgotten 2020 — and that was NOT just at the presidential level. The GOP lost 3 House seats that year (PA-7, PA-8, PA-17) in which Republicans had solid leads on election night.

McCormick's campaign pointed out most of the remaining uncounted votes come from "ruby red Cambria County" and claimed victory in the tight Senate race.

That would explain why the count total has been stuck on 95% for a while. Cambria County was the place where they had some kind of Election Day trouble and had to either extend voting hours or use provisional ballots.

I don’t know if I would call Cambria County “ruby red.” While it went decisively for Trump this time around, it’s also the county that gave us Johnurtha for so many years.

Unseating Casey is a big deal. He has been a useless swamp rat for decades. Pa went a more reddish purple Tuesday night. Another case where we out hustled the libs.

As an aside, this morning on my walk around the neighborhood, 3 more Harris \Walz signs ripped out of yards this AM. I have never stepped foot on any property, they are roadside.

ALL of Cambria County casts 1% of the PA vote.

There are surely far more votes out there than just Cambria, but what would we expect the McCormick campaign to highlight?

Hopefully those unmentioned votes aren’t biased hard to the left, like being in boxes from Philly or some (many) of its suburbs.

Overall - many races are seemingly stuck across the country. Several are at zero percent counted.

He was only up 20,000 votes or so late yesterday now he’s up 30K....The only thing with Cambria, they can “cross” vote to offset the R or D at the top of the ticket.

That should be “John Murtha.”

Murtha is long dead and Cambria is bright red. Cambria can only help McCormick; this isn't 1990.

This race worried me. Dem ads were brutal, mostly using the carpetbagger theme. McCormick was a fat cat, an elitist, you’re paying for his mansions...and always, he prefers Connecticut. I’m in deep red central PA but Casey is rather popular with many.

Good, now let’s get on with finding a pro Trump majority leader in the senate.
