God I'm so glad PA18 is going to get change, what an abomination of a district it is, I live 2000 ft from the border since it slashes right through my town in half.

Can any PA goons tell us what we should be looking for to know if this will be close or a dunking?

It'll be close because SW is full of dumbass yinzers who have gone full chud because the dumbass Dems took the union voters for granted. Also the same problem in parts of Appalachia where coal miners/steel workers want to vote for anyone who says they'll bring their jobs back.

Saccone doesn't support unions which is probably a big potential factor for Lamb, but Saccone is also a mega Catholic which is a big deciding factor for people in this region

As a reminder this will 100% narrow as Westmoreland comes in.

When it does, panic wildly.

loving Westmoreland county, all those shitheads who move to Murrysville just because they hate the taxes in Allegheny county (It does have a Burgatory and North Park Lounge though)

Yeah this is what helped in getting our DSA people voted in too, weather was also kind of lovely today.

I think this was his seat, though I very much could be wrong.

Yeah he sat in PA-18 before being a senator

Nearly 3000 votes left in Allegheny? That's good.

Depends on where these votes are, there are some really red parts of Allegheny (plus a lot of Nazis but no one talks about that much)

Driving their Ferraris around in Peters Township

Yeah those jagoffs loved to leave Allegheny County just far enough to not pay Allegheny taxes, but close enough that the commute to Pittsburgh isn't as godawful

Additionally didn't the PA GOP try to take it to the US Supreme Court and got told to go pound sand?

Now they are trying to impeach the PA Supreme Court judges

I'm gonna spend all day tomorrow explaining why if you're "personally pro-life but politically support a woman's right to choose" it makes you pro-choice, not anti-abortion.

Funny thing is this pisses people off on both ways, I know some of my comrades in the Soc Fem committee of the Pittsburgh DSA who loving hate people like that. I agree with them mainly because I don't think abortion is really that relevant in my interpretations of Catholicism and is more of a recent thing. That and pro-life Catholics are some of the most obnoxious people I know and I only associate myself with them because I like the social events and parties that my family friends and church pull off.

Glad to see that Monroeville voted for Lamb, despite being unable to vote even though PA 18 is just a walk around the block
