Awesome. 
Actually, Pa is looking more red than I've seen it in my lifetime. Pa is a very peculiar state. It's surrounded by liberal cesspools yet Pa in practice has always been very Conservative as far as legislation and action go and yet Pa still votes blue locally and nationally. We're blue on the outside but most definitely red on the inside. I think the problem lies with the disproportionate amount of electorate votes giving to our commonwealth's shit-holes.
Exactly, how is it possible that a huge pro-gun and hunting state can remain that way? Because underneath the media bullshit is a conservative PA.
Many don't vote because they think it's fruitless. How did Pat Toomy win ?
How did Corbet win??
The truth is these polls work as designed, there are 2 purposes.
1. People have a natural tendency to be ON the winning team. So, MSM, fraudulently espouses who the winning team is and some folks vote just for that reason.
2. Discourage opposition turnout. It works, THEY KNOW it works and they have ramped it up this election to be so blatant and some still don't see.
Yep, it is discouraging, but that should make us more DETERMINED.
The part that stymies me is that the OMan has really, really put this country on the path to destruction. Every country EVER that has used his type policies have become an economic smoking crater. EVERY ONE.
COMMUNISM FAILS EVERYTIME, EVERYWHERE... and that is clearly what he wants.
What on God's earth will open these people's eyes?
