The Philly suburbs have boatloads of RINO Republicans, perhaps more than anywhere else in the nation, due to historical reasons, since the Philly suburbs were controlled by a GOP machine, and Dems wanted to have some impact in who was elected. The residue of that lives on. The GOP runs behind registration figures in Montgomery and Delaware County for most offices. Still, the RINO contingent disappears largely as one moves into The T, and does not have much resilience in the Pittsburgh metro area, which is notable for its large number of DIMO's. Pennsylvania is an interesting state.
