Wrong

OZ and MCCormick both spent more than $30 Million dollars EACH over the course of the primary.. they each spent more individually on the primary, than both parties spent COMBINED in the last general election to wind up with 31% of the primary vote.

Barnette was virtually unknown until she absolutely bitch slapped them both in the debates.

In just a few weeks she went from a virtual unknown to polling ahead of both of them… then Hannity and all the usual suspects started just throwing lies and attacks on her.. and went full bore Uniparty.. attacking her in ways that no democrat has ever been attacked by.

She absolutely would have won with 100m behind her.

This is the truth about PA

46% D
39% R
15% I

You don’t win it as a Republican statewide unless you can get the I’s by more than 2 to 1 and/or peel off a lot of conservative blue color democrats.

Barnette absolutely had a far far stronger hand to pulls that off than OZ ever could have.

OZ was a crap candidate who ran a crap campaign, the GOP as a whole ran lousy campaigns… the “at least I’m not the other guy” or the “other guy is evil” is never ever going to produce a winnable result in a state like PA. Kathy absolutely offered a message FOR herself… she absolutely would have had crossover appeal, and would have outperformed OZ by at least 5 points, with that kind of money and the organization behind her.

The reason that conservatives generally lose statewide in PA is they are kept from running, or if they do miraculously beat the system and get a nomination the state Republican machine works against them.. so they have to battle both the Democrat and their own party machine.. or in the case like Mastriano they also run a lousy campaign.

Barnette actually outperformed Trump in her district during her congressional run… she absolutely could win statewide if given the same support The carpetbagging fraud OZ had been given.
