Chrin, a conservative, Trump supporter and swamp drainer winning so far. U.S. House District 8.

wow.
Im in PA...happy!!
Who do we want in this race?
Scott Wagner is the guy that upended the Republican Establishment winning a special election as a write-in over their candidate in 2014.
He would be best for governor since Paul Mango reminds me of some kind of front man for special interests and lobbyists using his military background to hustle voters.
A lot of women will vote for Ellsworth showing their disgust for the dirty fight between Mango and Wagner, but she’s new to the scene and will have to look to the future for any political career.
We want:
Paul Mango for Governor.
Lou Barletta for Senate.
Congress varies. But in my district 8 it is John Chrin who was the businessman and Trump supporter. He was up initially, but looks now to be down double digits. The guy who is winning is Joe Peters who ran on - “Lets send a cop to Congress!”
Whatever. He is also a lawyer. Let’s send another lawyer to Congress. Hooray.
Ellsworth lives near me and I’m a woman. No way I voted for her. She’s consistently refused to answer the abortion question. If a candidate won’t supoort the basic right to life, they won’t much care about liberty either.
Really hoping for Peg Luksik for Lt Gov.
It appears that Republican Congressman, Lou (Trumpster) Barletta will win the GOP Primary and then go on to destroy and defeat “Do Nothing Democrat, Bob Casey”.
If Barletter wins, expect to see “Trumpie” campaigning in Pennsylvania, big time. Pubbies will easily pickup five to twelve Democrat Senator seats
“If a candidate won’t support the basic right to life, they won’t much care about liberty either.”
Wow, I like that. Very astute, very true.
Wagner will raise taxes and put boys in the girls showers at school.
Mango was the conservative choice.

I just had to take a look at the Lt. Gov. primary for the Dems. Fetterman makes Bernie look like a member of The Freedom Caucus. His slogan should be- Braddock, coming to a town near you.
He's almost the exact opposite of Pat Toomey ... old-school blue collar guy vs. establishment Republican. But I like them both for different reasons, and I was thrilled when Toomey endorsed Barletta in this primary. It would be awesome to see them both in the Senate.
