Very dangerous right-wing Christianist nut job Doug Mastriano, who collaborated with Trump to try to overturn the election in PA, just won the Republican gubernatorial nomination. God help us.
Thankfully, he will be running against Dem Attorney General Josh Shapiro, who is incredibly popular. The race, which was considered a tossup, is now “leans Dem.”
.@CookPolitical will be moving this race from Toss Up to Lean Democrat upon Mastriano's #PAGov win. https://t.co/kZE7LG4Mil

Doug Mastriano will be my opponent – and he is the most extreme gubernatorial candidate in the country.
He would ban abortion, end vote by mail, and rip away our freedoms.
Pennsylvania is a swing state. We can't take anything for granted. Chip in: https://t.co/K3NI1aPxvL

In a blow to the establishment wing (corporatists) of the Democratic Party John Fetterman crushed Manchinite Conner Lamb in the US senate race.
Fetterman will run against some Fascist, Republican spouting Trumpian conspiracy theories.
Shapiro will help Fetterman and vice versa, so the Democrats will pick up a senate seat and hold the governorship in PA.
