Pa. Democrats gain ground in Trump counties following election

In statewide and county and municipal races across Pennsylvania, voters went blue after previously voting for President Donald Trump. Pickups across the state could indicate a rejection of the White House and the Republican Party’s agenda.

“It clearly shows the momentum is on our side, and the voters are giving us a chance because there was a clear rejection of the extremism and chaos of Washington,” Pennsylvania Democratic Party Chair Eugene DePasquale told The Keystone.

He explained that Tuesday’s results were a repudiation of the current administration, and also a repudiation of Pennsylvania’s richest billionaire, Jeffrey Yass.

“ I think it was, clearly. Obviously we have a lot of work to do to fully rebuild trust with the voters. This is one step. The other thing was the rejection of a mega-billionaire trying to buy the court system,” DePasquale said.

And the money of multiple slick large postcard mailers. That poisoned the well, but still there was the organizing on the local level. I think MAGA was numb from the impact of tariffs on their wallets. GOP may not always be so somnambulent.
