Unless some credible in state polling, (not sure who that’d be), comes out and says the GOP is up by 40, Filthadelphia could still steal any statewide election!

Pennsylvania is the state to watch - for election fraud. The media claims that Oz and Mastriano have no chance. But there is evidence that the races are very close. Look for Philadelphia to have 150% turnout to put Shapiro and Fetterman over the top.

Trafalgar is the most optimistic Republican pollster.

Creep Shapiro worked for crook Torricelli who was forced to withdraw his candidacy for Senator in New Jersey. Mastrangelo’s people should be using this.

“He would be likely to accomplish those measures given the Republican advantage in the state legislature.”

The “Republican advantage” in the state House has maybe a 50% chance of remaining in effect after November. Democrats are expected to pick up close to the number of seats they need in order to seize control.

The PA Democrat Supreme Court successfully gerrymandered both the PA House and Senate in a massive way, but the effect on the Senate may not be apparent until after the 2024 election.

This is the strangest gubernatorial campaign. Not even one debate.

Mastriano’s campaign doesn’t have a lot of money. OK. Then he should be chomping at the bit to talk to the press. Live radio and tv interviews would allow him to discuss his positions and persuade voters. Is he so lacking in his own convictions that he will only discuss them in a safe and friendly environment?

What I love about Donald Trump is that he’s a fighter. Mastriano is proving he is not a fighter, and even worse, he’s a ghost.

But all the polls yesterday said Mastiano was dead and double digits behind? How heavy did they oversample Dems in this one?

I just read another article claiming Mastriano was losing by double digits.

How….unsurprising.

I’ve donated.

PA as a state is a lost cause. Libtard disease is too deep. I just want Kari Lake to win.

Honestly if evil people like Fetterman, Whitmer, Waltz and the like win...I could give two f***s less if Kari Lake wins!

You are so right about Mastriano. Not one t.v. ad. Doesn’t talk to reporters, even local ones. He has been defined by Shapiro as a right wing kook who likes to dress up in Confederate uniforms and opposes all abortions. Shapiro has run a brutal media campaign against Mastriano and I haven’t heard a peep out of Mastriano to take him on.

Pennsylvania is a big state. You have to get ads up in the two big media markets—Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Mastriano is spending his money on a campaign bus. Shapiro has been around in PA politics. He has high name recognition and for the low information voters in this state, that’s enough.

I heard Mastriano speak in my hometown. Hardly advertised appearance. About 200 people showed up in a hanger at the local tiny airport. He actually said he thought he was chosen by God to be governor. On hand giving the opening prayer was a New Apostolic Reformation preacher. Go read about those nuts and what they believe.

Mastriano expects to win by touring hamlets in his campaign bus and having supporters put out some yard signs? He needs a miracle to overcome the fact that he is a lousy candidate. Lou Barletta would have been able to beat Shapiro.

I suspect the women’s vote will have an influence. Men do not pay enough attention to what women care about. For women, childbirth is a little like going to war. There is always a slight chance that something could kill you. I never thought about that until I got pregnant. Fortunately, both my pregnancies were healthy, but unexpectedly one birth was 3 weeks late, and the other a month early with a week spent in the hospital, and me visiting every day to caress him and make him feel my love, while being told his pneumonia could kill him (20% chance).

When it comes to absolutely NO ABORtIONS, obviously most men and many women don’t realize that one serious risk is that of an ectopic pregnancy. When I Googled “how often does an ectopic pregnancy occur?”, this statement was at the top of the page. “In an ectopic pregnancy, a fertilised egg starts to grow somewhere other than in the normal lining of the womb, usually in 1 of the fallopian tubes. Ectopic pregnancy affects around 1 in 100 pregnancies.”

I had not realized the risk was so 1 in 100. Especially if it is in the fallopian tube it causes great pain when the tube bursts and bleeds internally. The fetus CANNOT be saved. Delay in surgical removal is very dangerous and can kill the mother with severe bleeding. This is just one of a number of pregnancy issues motivating women voters.

This race is much, much more important than Dr. Odd vs. Uncle Fester. Without a Republican in the State House, cheating will be off the charts in PA again in 2024.

I think a lot of people see the Shapiro ads and say, “Damn, that Mastriano guy seems good to me.” They seem tone-deaf outside of a few lily-white areas of PA.

Gee, how can this be? I read on this very site that Shapiro had this in the bag with double digit leads.

Lots of them may just not show up.

In case you haven't figured it out, *it doesn't matter if they show up.* Their votes will still be counted, even if they don't cast them.

You are clueless. Talking to the press and the leftist media is funding the enemy and providing them with content. Notice, they don't bother with the right media.

Mastriano is a fighter. Shapiro will have to resort to cheating to beat him.

The problem is that too many people STILL pay attention to the left media that hates you. You'll note that the polls are very close despite all the attacks of Little Josh. What are you doing to help Mastriano? Nothing, most likely, except bitching about him on FR.

Lou Barletta would have been able to beat Shapiro.

And yet, Lou couldn't even beat Mastriano in the primary.
