Standing room only. Apparently another 6,000 couldn't get in.

This is in Wilkes-Barr PA. Quite a difference from the crowd of 23 who came to see Cruz. I predict that Trump will do well in PA today.

Full Speech Here.....

It was actually in the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes-Barre Township. I'm originally from NEPA (Northeastern PA) and not surprised at all with that turnout. Scranton (birthplace of Hillary's Dad and resting place for both of her parents) tends to vote Democratic, but overall I feel NEPA is definitely more conservative than Philly and Pittsburgh.

I'm sure you might have heard the saying, in Pennsylvania you have Pittsburgh on one end and Philly on the other with Alabama in between. Having been to most of the 67 counties in PA and having lived in 3, I would agree with that statement. They don't call it Pennsyltucky for nothing! I agree Trump will do quite well in PA today.

I love PA. It is a beautiful state with beautiful people. Trump should do very well there.

Pennsyltucky LOL, I would call it Pennsylbama.

I have seen a lot of cars here in FL flying confederate flags with Pennsylvania plates. Apparently these people have some sort of identity crisis or think Pennsylvania was part of the confederacy.

Wrong...PA has some tough mountain boys and also farmers who feed this country plus big cities.. Many rural areas in the mountains are awesome to see.

As a retired columnist for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette once said "Pa. is a misplaced southern state". Go 20 miles in any direction from Pittsburgh and it`s squirrel eating country.

Darn, We'll have to send the medicine man over to Wilkes Barre and do a ritual cleansing to drive out the evil spirits.

Driving out evil spirits, especially Pentecostal ones, is what the people of PA are doing today at the voting booths.
