I'm not from PA. The people of PA will choose from a corporate Democrat that supports Biden policies or the opposite.

You must be the minority making a previous election a conspiracy the #1 issue in 2022. If you think that surpasses the economy, crime and immigration than good luck. We will see if Biden's policies are famous in PA in 2022.
Authoritarian rule should be the top priority of voters that is what guys like Mastriano wants to change. They want the power to overturn election results when their guy doesn't win without the courts being involved.

How do you turn elections without the courts? Has there been a time in modern history when that happen?
If you want to ban protesting except from the left and the things you agree then make your case and good luck.

I never said protesting I said Trump attempted to get state legislatures to vote in their own electors overturning results without the courts. Trump again attempted to have Mike Pence throw out certified electors from states that didn't go his way all done without the courts.

His roadblock was some Republicans, and democrats who had enough control to stop it. If the right people are in the right spots in 2024 and Trump loses again those people can reject the results without the courts. That is why Trump wants the most extreme in office.

Fetterman on the other hand has a potential "Black problem" and without a strong Black turnout he's unlikely to win. I suspect he's going to get hit with this incident over and over again. It might be one reason the Dem establishment wasn't too keen on Fetterman running.

John Fetterman said he heard what sounded like gunfire and saw a man running away. So he reacted by getting his kid inside to safety before he called 911.

What Fetterman did next, however, still haunts him nine years later as he campaigns for the Democratic nomination for the Senate in Pennsylvania: He chased the man down with a shotgun and detained him until police arrived.

It turned out that the man was jogging and wearing running clothes. According to a police report, the man was unarmed and said the sound of gunfire was actually fireworks, although two witnesses thought they heard shots.

The man Fetterman pulled a gun on is Black.

Why does that "still haunt" him 9 years later? Sounds like he acted properly under the circumstances to me.

Kentucky's 6th house district used to be dominated by moderate Democrats. Now it's moved so far right that the Democrat to challenge the GOP incumbent is pro Russian and pro China. He wants to end all aid to Ukraine and instead aid Russia in annexing parts of Ukraine. So the pretty far right Garland 'Andy' Barr GOP that holds the seat is actually who D's are rooting for.

Because it hurts him with Black voters:

Revered by white progressives, John Fetterman got trounced in heavily black sections of Philadelphia

Correct. In PA then laws were on his side . And mostly still are. He can increase his base with the 2A loyalist by saying how it preserved all lives in that incident.

Neither McCormick or OZ are worthy to represent PA. If they do then... Guess it can be concluded that the toxic lies prevail.

I get the packaging and it's not a bad idea: huge tattooed White male who likes guns. But he's got a problem with Black voters whose strong support he will need in Nov.

Furthermore the Dems had better pray McCormick wins because right or wrong OZ celebrity status is sure to peel off a percentage of Black female voters who are fans. Not a lot mind you. But enough for OZ to win in what is sure to be a tight race.

What law did Trump violate again? do you have the federal code? Again, all the politics and fighting were done in the courts and state legislatures. Trump never violated the constitution or disobey the S.C. decisions so you lost me with your Trump hysteria.

I don't agree with lots of stuff Biden and his party does on a daily basis that are really foul but I don't make a crisis out it when there are real issues out there.
