Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
How do you see the PA gubernatorial race? Does Mastriano have a legitimate chance? Philadelphia has so much sway in elections there; just as Chicago does in Illinois.
““The goal is to start fresh,” said Mastriano. “This is not going to be popular on the left or right because it’s going to be inconvenient. Everyone that wants to vote is going to have to go back to re-register. I think that’s the best way to start restoring confidence in voting in our state.””
This would inconvenience some of the registered voters born in the 1870s, but he’s on to a great idea here.
In person voting gets reported last, only after mail in, absentee, and other off-polling location site votes are certified. Then the in person votes are reported. No “discovery ballots” which keep getting found until the General votes are overtaken by the Beltway chosen candidate.
“Mastriano has the same chance as Scott Wagner had four years ago with no support and plenty of subterfuge from the GOP-Eeyores.”
So Shapiro will clobber Mastriano just as Wolf clobbered Wagner. So sad. And the guy who’s in a coma will defeat Dr. Oz (a terrible candidate) for the senate seat. Pennsylvania is held hostage by Philadelphia. We here in Illinois suffer the same dynamic with Chicago.
Mastriano has a better personality than Scott Wagner IMHO did in 2018 against the incumbent Tom Wolf. Gasoline prices were a heck of a lot lower then.
The economy gives Mastriano momentum the GOP didn’t have in the governor’s race in 2018.
Interestingly enough our RINO legislative leaders toying with a ‘gas tax holiday” its an option with all the COVID funny money passed around to the states good until 2024.
Wolf the Democrat Governor probably wants to help soften any anger that might hurt Democrats this fall hey he could sign off on it too.

I’d love to give Philly and ‘burb counties Bucks, Montgomery, and Delaware to New Jersey.
Need the improvements to get him elected in the first place.
Otherwise, a massive red wave may do it.
Democrats cheat and RINO-controlled legislatures look the other way.
RINOs would rather a Democrat win than have 'their' party taken over by MAGA.

That was my first thought.
If they can cheat Trump out, they can cheat anybody out.
“I’d love to give Philly and ‘burb counties Bucks, Montgomery, and Delaware to New Jersey.”
Not even Jersey would want them.
I’m wondering about this strategy. Mastriano is no slouch in the brains department, so he has to know there’s no way totally clearing the voter rolls will ever get past the state Supreme Court, at least not before 2023, much less the various levels of the federal courts.
There is a whole lot he could do with a committed Secretary of State though. The voter rolls could be audited and a lot of old and potentially fraudulent registrations cleared from college towns, nursing homes, and apartment complexes based solely on simple address filters and census data. That would make a huge dent in traditional vote fraud vulnerabilities.
Nope. The cheat is too bad here in PA. The left wants Shapiro in there and they will get him in there regardless. He will be the new darling of the left and next presidential hopeful.
Regardless who you put in there, the left will win.
Not in PA. Voter rolls of the deceased go back 10 years before cleaning up. This has been a unresolved problem in PA for as long as I can remember.
Unfortunately Pa. rarely gives voters a good selection - and this time they didn’t either.
