Nice post, from a fellow Westmoreland County resident.

i can’t wait for Bradlee to die...wasn’t he the one that gave his sister in law’s diary (you know, the one sleeping with Kennedy) over to the CIA after she was mysteriously murdered right after Kennedy was killed in Dallas?

Luzerne was the biggest flip from ‘12 to ‘16.

I was born in Luzerne county and went back prior to the election. There’re Trump signs everywhere. I know the Barletta family and he’s a good man.

The other day someone from PA said the new Governor (Wolf) did a redistricting scheme that prevents PA from getting enough electoral votes for a republican President.

Can anyone else from PA confirm this?

Why would that work in a winner-take-all state. He did support the PA Supremes redrawing congressional districts which is supposed to guarantee at least four of 18 districts flipping. We shall see.

In 2011, Pennsylvania also came very close into adopting the congressional district system used in Maine and Nebraska to allocate electroal votes. The GOP had the governor's office plus substantial majorities in both houses of the legislature and a bill ready to pass. The @$$hat GOP chairman sabotaged it because he felt his nationwide influence might be diminished with split electoral votes. In reality, I still think it would be a good idea since only 4 of 18 districts are solid RAT, 7 are solid GOP and the remaining 7 are up for grabs.

Trump won Carbon County where I live. The Times News of Lehighton ran a story a few weeks ago, registered Republicans now outnumber registered Democrats for the first time ever.

I think when Democrats loose the both the soft and hard coal regions then it’s basically over as far as the working man is concerned.
