They needed to put that money toward Mastriano for gov. Mastriano would have gotten a grip on the election fraud in PA.
Matriano was a still birth.
He ran a horrible campaign. Yes the party should have supported him, but they didn’t want him and were never going to give him anything but token support in public while working against him behind the scenes.
But Mastriano ran probably the worst campaign I’ve seen. Only talking to friendly outlets, etc etc.. Governor’s race was indeed overshadowed by the huge amount spent by both parties trying to buy the Senate seat.. but Mastriano never had a shot, just a horrible horrible campaign.
I do agree as a Pennsylvanian the governors race was far more important to citizens of PA than the Senator’s race... but the GOPe of PA is absolutely horrible. Harrisburg in many ways is as much if not more of a swamp than DC. The establishment GOP here is absolutely useless.
Controlled both houses the state legislature for all but 4 of the last 30 years or so and we have the highest gas taxes in the nation... etc etc.
Until people wake up and realize the establishment GOP is as much a part of the problem as the Dems, nothing is going to change.
