For the love of God! Who voted for this man and WHY?
If you voted for this man you are dumber than he is and if you’re that dumb you probably shouldn’t even be voting.
Whoever you are if you voted for this man please don’t move to Tennessee.
Stay where you are. We might pay you to stay where you are.
Please don’t come and vote here! Please don’t!
It wasn’t votes - it was ballots.
I will explain what happened in Pennsylvania.
First, ballot harvesting started in the summer and was mostly complete by Labor Day. During that time, the press covered for Fetterman’s disability and he made no major public appearances.
Those ballots (not votes) were enough to win the race. Those are ballots collected from people who never vote and who are told how to vote. The ballots are collected and deposited on their behalf. All this is perfectly legal.
The second problem is that Trump interfered in our primary and lied about the only true conservative running so his rich friend, Dr Azz, could be our nominee. Dr Azz owns multiple mansions, lives in NJ and made his first campaign commercial in front of his NJ mansion. He made his next campaign commercial at a PA grocery store he could not pronounce and described how he was buying things to make a crudite. The man never connected with the people.
Even worse, Dr Azz’s track record of supporting assault weapon bans, confiscations, child transitioning, etc reduced his connection with GOP voters.
There was only one debate between Fetterman and Dr Azz. It was 2 weeks before the election. When the world saw Fetterman’s disability, the #1 search on Google became “How do I change my vote”. But those mail-in ballots were already cast and were not going to be changed.
Dr Azz won the vote on election day. But the mail-in ballots harvested from non-voters carried Fetterman to victory.
Our candidate for governor, Mastriano, won more votes than any GOP candidate in the history of Pennsylvania, but still lost to the Democrat who refused to debate him.
The truth is that in PA, no GOP candidate will win statewide office until a strategy is devised to combat ballot harvesting. Trump’s team had no strategy despite losing in 2020 to the same process. With Democrats in control of the governor’s mansion and state assembly and state supreme court, the laws will not change.
So the GOP needs to start playing the game and harvesting ballots themselves.
