Those folks near Scranton, you have to hand it to them. They realize now they are up a Creek and have no paddles, when they voted for Joe.
“Those folks near Scranton, you have to hand it to them. “
This may be “near” Scranton but its’s sure as hell not Scranton. It’s Wilkes-Barre (and suburbs).
Scranton (Lacakwanna County) is a hard-core Democrat shithole and nothing significant has changed about that though its registrations are heading the right direction as is true of about 90% of PA’s counties these days. Joe Biden’s “home town” (in his imagination) and its surrounding area is still way over there on the left. The (D) registration edge in Lackawanna is 20,000, or about 19%.
Lackawanna hasn’t voted (R) for President since Reagan; Luzerne has already voted twice for Trump — by 19% and then by 14% — so this belated registration flip isn’t as monumental as the hype suggests; Luzerne has already “flipped” as of several years ago where it counts the most: at the ballot box.
Lackawanna enthusiastically voted for Fetterman and Joshie Shapiwo two years ago. Luzerne went for Oz and only narrowly (1%) rejected Doug Mastriano for Governor.
