PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Pennsylvania House Representative Mike Reese (R-Westmoreland/Somerset) has died of an apparent brain aneurysm.

Reese had recently been re-elected in the November 3 general election as Representative of Pennsylvania’s 59th district, which serves parts of Westmoreland and Somerset counties.

He was first elected to the Pa. House of Representatives in 2008, taking office in the 2009-10 legislative session.

Reese served as the Pa. House Republican Caucus as caucus secretary during the 2019-20 session and was elected to serve as chairman of the caucus in the 2020-21 session.

He died Saturday afternoon at Excela Health Westmoreland Hospital with his family by his side following the apparent brain aneurysm.

In a statement, Pa. House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff said:

“On behalf of the entire House Republican Caucus, I extend our deepest sympathies and condolences to the family of Rep. Mike Reese.”

“More than a friend to all of us, and one of our caucus leaders, Mike was a devoted husband and father. His wife, three young children and extended family are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.”

“I have known Mike since he took office in 2009 and have been proud to witness his many legislative accomplishments, especially his tireless work on behalf of Pennsylvania’s students and families. Mike was a model legislator who thoughtfully put his constituents first. His spirit, presence and counsel will be sorely missed.”

On December 7, Reese tested positive for Coronavirus.

Reese, a native of Mt. Pleasant, graduated from Mt. Pleasant High School before attending Duquesne University where he received a Bachelor’s degree and Seton Hill University where he received a Masters degree.

He is survived by his wife Angela and three children.

Reese was 42 years old.

take the count multiply by ten... (40) and then watch the same thing be done to multiple democrat senators (5), house members (17), and a half dozen each of state governors (6), lieutenant governors(6) and demo-commie compliant secretaries of state(6).

total 40.

STOP.


There is a traditional piece of wisdom that ends with

“three time is enemy action”

It may be a good time to invest in tinfoil. It also seems a good time to look to one’s hole card and make one’s peace with a higher power.

Happy two-thirds of a year on the forum!!!!!

Am I hitting to close to target?

Too many to be a coincidence.
Deep state is knocking them off.
It’s obvious that there’s been a lot of murdering of republican politicians going on. Also murders to COVER UP DEMONRAT DIRT!

The deep staters must think we’re stupid.
Maybe they don’t care because no one is stopping them or investigating them.
It’s time for it to END!

Just a coincidence they’re dying.

Just a coincidence that Rush and Bongino have cancer.

Just a coincidence Justice Scalia died in 2016.

Just a coincidence that Trump got Covid.

Just a coincidence that Covid happened in an election year.

Just a coincidence that 5 swing States all stopped counting in the middle of the night.

Lots of coincidences, for sure.

Seems to me that he died WITH Covid not because of Covid, I wonder how it will be recorded..

It’s a shame we even have to talk about this when a man has died and his family is grieving

Maybe I’m a bad person for being so cynical.

Covid can cause the blood to basically turn into sludge and create clots. A clot getting stuck in a blood vessel can cause a rupture.

but does not cause an aneurysm. hemorrhagic transformation of an ischemic stroke occurs hours to days after the stroke and does not involve an aneurysm.

Penna legislative vacancies are filled via special election. So it’s not like the Democrat governor can appoint a replacement.
