Two in one day. Earlier today, we learned that Senator Smith of Minnesota is not a shoo-in and now Casey is going to have to work hard to keep his seat. Both are probably still favored, but the media have been telling us that these races were over and would lead the way to the inevitable Blue Wave. Perhaps we are starting to hear that the people may not agree with the media and the pundits. The state of Pennsylvania is full of hard core Democrats who broke with this corrupt party and voted for Trump. Why in the world would these people turn back to the Democrats? They won’t, and many of their neighbors will join them. Read about how the South turned from the Democrats to the Republicans. It didn’t happen over night, but once it started, it never stopped.
THIS statement is the meat of the article. Significant if Trump continue to gain the support from African Americans. And I think he will. Once AA see that Trump has the approval from their own community, I think more of them will openly voice their own support.
Republicans don't even need to flip those AA votes, if the Dem voter turn out is low, “they” can't cheat their way to election victory. So next time the Dems turn out ‘boxes and boxes of previously uncounted ballots’ esp. from heavily minority precincts, maybe they will speak up and turn against them
I hope the president holds more rallies in Pennsylvania to help Barletta.
Woah, this is a huge shift, Casey had been far ahead in previous polls.
Tell me this poll isn’t full of it!
Internal Poll: Wagner and Barletta in Striking Distance; Trump 8 point Net Approval
Closing the gap?
A new poll released today from Commonwealth Leaders Fund, a conservative group, shows GOP candidates for Governor and Senate are each trailing by less than 3 points to the Democratic incumbents.
The polling showed Gov. Tom Wolf leading Scott Wagner 46% to 43%. Sen. Bob Casey leads Rep. Lou Barletta 47% to 45%.
The polling, conducted via IVR interviews from Aug. 13-15, included 2,012 likely voters.
“Rep. Lou Barletta (R-PA) and Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) are in a dead heat in the Pennsylvania Senate race”
Hallelujah. I know Trump will be all over the place in the next couple of months stumping for various candidates, but I hope he can campaign at least a couple of more times with Barletta.
Casey is a luke warm candidate that ran on the issue that he is pro-life, although his voting record is suspect. He votes democrat in all but clear-cut votes about abortion. If he were truly pro-life like his father, he would vote differently. I think I’ll vote for Barletta.
No election involving a democrat has ever experienced “3.6 point margin of error”
With a Dem on the ballot, it’s always 50 points.
We need a Lou and Casey, debate..
Casey will deny one..because he is a pussy, and knows jack ****,
Lou needs to put pressure on Casey and demand a debate..
Voters in Pennsylvania need to vote Casey OUT...He does Nothing for our State..He goes into hiding as soon as the election is over and we never see him until time for another election...write to him..takes him months to answer, and when he answers he avoid totally your question and just writes, patting his own back, a typical form letter...He is totally disgusting...
VOTE LOU BARETTA
Hard to believe anyone that voted for Trump will vote for Casey
Much of the Pennsylvania Republican establishment is not supporting Barletta.
It’s even worse in Virginia where the Republican establishment is stabbing Corey Stewart in the back.
Two commonwealths that could turn Republican except for the traitorous RINOs who won’t support a conservative.
53% approval for Trump, yet dems will get extra turnout?
I suspect this is wishful thinking. People in PA truly believe in the Caseys, father and son.
