Nikki Haley's son goes to Villanova. It's one of the whitest, wealthiest zip codes in the state, in the suburbs on the Main Line. The worst thing that could possibly happen is a bar fight at Kelly's.

Tom Wolf is the only governor in the re-election era to have a same-party successor elected. He’s also the only Governor of said era to see his LG win another office…any office. None of this would’ve been possible without his 8 years of steady leadership
Gov. Tom Wolf, 74, leaves office with positive approval ratings from leading in-state polls and his endorsed successor, AG Josh Shapiro, succeeding him — marks the first time since 1966 that a Pa. governor has been succeeded by a member of the same party.

Pat Toomey is the worst Senator from Pennsylvania in my lifetime. Rick Santorum at least was attentive to local issues. Toomey didn't bring one red cent of federal money to PA in his entire congressional career. There's almost no evidence of his service in the entire Commonwealth
A lot of folks were wondering who the 5 senators were who voted against guaranteeing workers reasonable break time to pump breast milk. (It passed 92-5.) They were:
--John Cornyn (R-Tex.)
--Mike Lee (R-Utah)
--Pat Toomey (R-Penn.)
--Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.)
--Rand Paul (R-Ky.)

For all the attention PA gets you’d think that national media types would take time to learn basic political realities of the Commonwealth. Ex: The vast majority of voters in PA have no economic interest in fracking. There are less than 2,000 coal miners here. Etc
In 2000 it was Florida, Florida, Florida. In 2024 it's Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania.

Abortion is legal in Pennsylvania because we've had a pro-choice governor for 24 of the last 28 years. If Josh Shapiro wins it will remain unchanged. If Doug Mastriano wins he will pass a law that will ban all abortion and lead to aggressive DA's prosecuting miscarriages.

One minor problem with this: The Attorney General doesn’t determine the manner of death in Pennsylvania. Only a Coroner or Medical Examiner can do that.
In spite of testimony from the medical examiner that at least two of the stab wounds were likely made after she was dead, Shapiro's office still upheld the suicide determination and essentially sat on the case.
