How come Corbett lost? That seems like a shocker to me.
PA is full of libs, city libs and union libs.
My M I L is on that track but is in central (literally) PA, rural and small town yet I have not met a conservative there yet.
swhen I would hear my liberal friends talk, they HATED Corbett. They made him sound like Genghis Khan.
Corbett lost on people believing he was a problem here in PA. Wolf ran a campaign bashing Corbett on not charging an extraction tax on gas companies, but the school districts raising property taxes. Plus, Corbett approved the gas tax here, which didn’t go over well with anyone.
Wolf was effective in his campaign, but PA is really a red state with the exception of Philly and Pittsburgh. He was planning on hiking the income tax, which I don’t think will happen with a Republican Senate and House.
Corbett raised the gas tax in the state. Beyond that, there is construction on the roads EVERYWHERE. My usual 45 minute commute now takes me 1-1.5 hours. People are pissed, they blame Corbett.
Unions won tonight, Corbett was a flat out idiot and nothing can deny that.
