The question isn’t is he better then pat toomey, it’s is he gonna be better then the other dems tripping over themselves for the nomination for that seat. That’s yet tbd

That’s yet tbd looking at the layout of the pa dem party probably i imagine his competitors will be ghouls like nutter or maybe even kenny. i imagine shapiro and wolf have already let him know they ain’t running and shapiro will go for gov who knows tho. maybe well get some good smaller local pols

I think Nutter looked into it in 2016 and passed, i dont imagine he would try now. Brendan Boyle? Madeline Dean? Connor Lamb? Brian Fitzpatrick on the GOP side. Comedy Option: Joe Sestak I think the best chance dems have to not get blown out is Shapiro for gov, fetterman for senate ticket as it's something for everyone and will bump up turnout

kenney is a horrifically bad mayor and i think he'd potentially lose a senate/gov election dude has done fuckall for the city, let police attack blm protestors, took too long to cave in getting the rizzo statue down (and afaik they were just gonna relocate it), and to my awareness is basically just owned by the mob unions never mind how horrific the school system is and it feels like they've barely tried to do a loving thing at all in short, gently caress him

it isn't exclusive to him either. most of the philly politicians are dogshit and despite being a cool place the city is completely hosed if and when covid and the dying economy kill off most of the businesses for good makes me really sad

the yeti posted:this disappointment serves me right for getting even slightly invested in electoralism It’s disappointing for me too but despite all that I can’t think of a single democrat in Pennsylvania who would be more left then him and have any name recognition statewide unless like Larry krasner wanted to run You don’t have to Stan fetterman but It’s not like holding your nose and voting for Clinton or Biden.

(he didn't because he is a coward!) He also really really loving sucks pretending to be this progressive mayor of the "most livable city in America" where he does nothing about UPMC, tried selling out the city to get that Amazon HQ, and oh this just happened https://twitter.com/RyanDeto/status/1347695835514077184 (granted this maybe more the DA ratfucking him, but gently caress Peduto since he treated the BLM protestors like garbage regardless) the yeti posted:this disappointment serves me right for getting even slightly invested in electoralism

I was assaulted and have a case going through the court that legit would have been thrown out if I didn't regularly check the court dockets for when my next hearing is. I once received. supeona that was literally sent a week after my hearing and he stopped giving victims parking or bus passes

And let me tell you, suburban chuds absolutely hate Larry krasner far I will preface this by saying I have known him for several years but delcos new DA is pretty much the template for what a DA should be. He has set up a child abuse task force that focuses on getting services in place and involving more agencies in addressing stuff and has also really worked to end cash bail, not prosecute low level drug offenses but is also really working to involve victims in cases and has gotten heat for working out deals that seemed soft but he had spent time with the victim and offender to work on actual restorative justice principals. He has also held police accountable Krasner legit hasnt done anything and whenever social justice activists call he hides in his office

Does Kenney really have state-wide ambitions? lmao everyone I've met, whether from north Philadelphia or one of the snobby places on the main line, hates his guts. And I can't imagine anyone in the rural areas going for the ex-mayor of Philadelphia.
