Why does Pennsylvania have a Democrat Court?


1) They are elected at-large. Currently every member of the court hails from Philly or the Philly suburbs. There is an effort to amend the State Constitution and assign them to run by districts that are scattered around the state.

2) They run in an off-year election where people generally aren’t paying attention. The Dems saw this and exploited it to the hilt. Turnout for that race was something like 18% which allowed Democrat activists to run the table.

We’ve paid a very steep price for being asleep on that. The same court has banned voter ID and refused to end Tom Wolf’s lockdowns.

“They are elected at-large.”

An at-large election in a state like Pennsylvania is the equivalent of forgoing the Electoral College in favor of the popular vote nationally. Democrats love to use this trick to seize power over entire states by stuffing ballots in the urban areas they control.

Sounds dishonest to say the least, and outright criminal to be more accurate. It should not be legal to have an election, especially an election for judges, where only Democrats are aware that an election is taking place.
