"A Pennsylvania state representative who died last month was reelected during the midterm elections, reports say.
Democrat Anthony "Tony" DeLuca died Oct. 9 "after a brief battle with lymphoma, a disease he twice previously beat. He was 85," the Pennsylvania House Democratic Caucus wrote.
DeLuca was Pennsylvania's longest-serving state rep, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette."
I guess it isn't too surprising that PA Dems elected a US Senator who can barely speak or convey a cogent thought if they'll vote for and elect a dead man as a state representative.
Reportedly, some of the Dem voters in PA were asking the poll workers where Obama's name was on the ballot because they thought he was running for President.
I’m an unaffiliated voter, but I’ve heavily favored Republicans recently because I can’t stand the far left and what they are doing to this country. However, I look at it this way - If the shoe were on the other foot and the choice was “dead Republican” [who would then be replaced probably by another Republican until a special election happens] or a Democrat who has policy positions that are pretty much the opposite of what I want to see happen in my state, I’d probably vote for the dead candidate as well.
Hey Pennsylvania folks ! You were cheated just like the Brazilians. Fill yourself with courage and take to the streets to protest. Recount the ballots one by one. Send the monster back to Transilvania.
Republicans have screwed up their messaging so bad they can't even beat a dead guy.
I don't know why but this sentence made me laugh out loud. Politics has always strange but this sort of puts it into perspective. Thanks for the laugh this morning.
