"We received nothing from the Republican National Committee (RNC), nothing from the Republican Governor’s Association (RGA), and nothing from the many conservative PACs across the country—including the Pennsylvania PAC that had previously threatened to turn its back."
"The third important and immediate change we must make is to adjust our attitude toward mail-in voting. If we plan on winning statewide offices, we have no choice but to embrace this method of voting. Our Nov. 8 win, among election day voters, was wiped away by the hundreds of thousands of mail–in votes Democrats secured before a single vote was cast on election day. If we take away anything of value from the pain of 2022, it should be that this is not a time for blame. Our causes demand more of us than that. It’s a time to let wide-eyed honesty move us to do what we must so that we can learn to fight together."

Election integrity is a myth now. He is supporting the old soviet system developed under Stalin.
1. Everyone must vote.
2. But we’ll do the counting.
Keeps up appearances while guaranteeing the outcome.
I can point to three features of his campaign that gave every indication that he was destined for a humiliating defeat:
1. His refusal to speak to the mainstream media. I know the MSM is the enemy. But they have an audience, and any coverage of a campaign amounts to free advertising. Who came up with this brilliant idea for a major campaign?
2. That "Desert Storm Veteran" hat. The first time I saw his website photo with that stupid hat on earlier in 2022, I knew this guy was toast. Desert Storm was more than 30 years ago, dude ... and hardly anyone even remembers it. And very few voters are impressed with that anymore. Importantly, he didn't need to appeal to veterans, who were going to vote for him overwhelmingly anyway. This speaks to a bigger issue in his campaign that I'll address below in Item #3.
3. Turning his political campaign into a religious crusade. I have the utmost respect for dedicated Christians ... but, my heavens -- most American voters in large urban areas are completely turned off by that overt religiosity in politics. They find it weird at best and off-putting in most cases. This goes to the bigger point I mentioned above: I never saw any aspect of Mastriano's campaign that was aimed at attracting a single voter who wasn't already a dedicated supporter.
Please go away, Doug.
He always embraced them. As a state senator, he voted for the Pennsylvania law that enabled mail-in voting.
Not embracing, but just accepting the hard reality that there is no way that mail-in voting can be repealed with Shapiro as governor and the Dems running the House of Representatives in Harrisburg.
You are a kook Alberta. Get out of this thread.
Which makes you part of the problem.
Maybe, but he should have before he ran.
Ronna failed
I don’t know if that is true, but we had a Dem gov in 2020 and 2021.
This guy was worse than Bill Simon in Calif-2002.
The mail-in voting law was passed in PA by the legislature when both houses were controlled by Republicans.
Why would anyone expect it to be "repealed" even if the GOP controlled every elected seat in the Pennsylvania government?
Stop the pathetic whining. I VOTED FOR HIM.
Yours was a hollow vote since you did nothing else to help him. Just complain and tear him down.
Like what?
