What were Trump’s totals in these districts?

Thanks.

Please look at the votes in both primaries. The R got more votes the Helen Tai did in the D primary. The special election was on a separate line. I know. I live in the district. Republicans forgot to vote twice, once for the primary; once in the special election.

And she gave a factual response. (Which you totally disregarded in your response to her)

Her youth or maturity here make no difference to the facts. Address the facts.

What congressional primary is this HD located? With all of those new lines might have increased turnout.

“96 votes out of 12,600? Why no recount demands?”

I was wondering about this also. It seems a recount would be automatic.

Trump barely won HD-178 50-47.

HD-48 is entirely in Washington County and it is ancestrally Democratic but trending right (just like most of Western PA). The previous Democrat Representative won this seat 58-41 in 2014 and the GOP didn’t field a Candidate in 2016. Other recent elections there were Lamb by 5, Wolf by 3, Romney by 8, Trump by 15, Casey by 1.

HD-48 is in the new PA-14.

HD-178 is in the new PA-1

Yes, I agree. I see nothing that tells me there’s a blue wave. I think each local contest is going to go to the best candidate for the people there.

At the Senate level, I think we are going to pick up some seats 4 to 6 is my guess here.

It’s a state legislature seat in PA. Who cares?

I do. Because both guys who will be up for Governor in the Fall want to raise my taxes.

I am very concerned with losing, especially those 41 seats you mentioned.

Soros never stops pouring money into his massive brainwashing machine.

Hungary’s leader kicked him out of Hungary, joining multiple other countries (including Russia) who have done the same.

I just don’t understand why this creature hasn’t been banned from the U.S., and his money seized.

Until their money source is stopped, the brainwashing (and election fraud) will continue.

It is very frustrating and concerning, and IMO, is not being addressed.

Tai won by 96 votes. She got 6,359 votes and Thomas received 6,263 votes.

Yeah like I’d listen to someone from Arizona who destroyed the United State by having McCain as a senator. Go away you traitor.
