Rural PA was referred to by James Carville as the Alabama of PA. Rolling countyside, mountains and small towns and very conservative.
Trump carried the PA T in 2016.

I looked on the map. It appears that the heart of Pittsburgh is inside this district. The only surprise would be if the district remained in Republican control.
Major urban enclave votes for Democrat? Not news.

Well it could, or it could mean that the GOP voters aren’t committed for/against one primary candidate, a lot of uncontested races, etc.
I missed early voting (ended last week) and may not go Tuesday morning in my state.
I knew enough about several candidates running that I was going to have to do research I didn’t have time to delve into to go.
Depends how my work day goes today if I’ll make my list.
Definitely going to vote in the general election and any runoff.

NPR quotes Terry Madonna who runs a polling organization out of F&M college. He's a liberal fraud who had Hillary winning Pa. by double digits. This race, like all those before, will come down to which party can get out their voters. It has nothing to do with repudiation of Trump. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the Republican establishment were intentionally suppressing voter turnout to embarrass Trump./p>

Didn’t the DemocRat party and corrupt cours in PA just Gerrymandered the entire state?

It will be interesting to see if Trump changes his tune on steel tariffs after this election.

The clue to watch is how much outside money pours into Lamb's campaign. If he doesn't harvest a deluge from Soros et al, it means the left doesn't think he has a chance. If he does, watch out.

I think this race is tight for two reasons:
1) Lamb is a long-established name in Pittsburgh Democrat politics. Members of that family have held public office here going back three generations. Many of them are well-liked personally, even by people who don’t typically vote Democrat.
2) There is a general sense of disgust by local Republicans who went to the wall getting Tim Murphy elected over and over only to find in the end that he was a two-faced phony. With friends like that does the Pro Life movement need any enemies? I think a lot of those voters are wary if investing themselves in another Republican campaign. How do they know Saccone won’t turn out to be another one?
