THIS is how you deal with these Repug shitheads!Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick offered $1 million for proof of voter fraud. Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman was happy to oblige him. Probably not in the fashion Patrick anticipated.
Of course, being a Republican, Patrick won't pay up.

First, thank you for unifying Pennsylvania during this divided time that the Cowboys truly blow.
My dude, you put out a national call for voter fraud + I delivered. It was a dead mom voting for Trump.
😆
Your generous reward will go directly to the Greater Pittsburgh Food Bank.

Faith in the electoral process is a serious issue. Transparency is critical. PA Dems brought this on themselves w/ last minute changes to election laws and counting ballots behind closed doors. Respond to the reports. Answer the questions. Stop the snide put-downs and #getserious

John Fetterman (born August 15, 1969) is an American politician who has served as the 34th lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania since January 2019. A member of the Democratic Party, he was mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania, from 2005 to 2019.[1] A native of York, Pennsylvania, Fetterman earned a bachelor's degree in finance from Albright College in 1991 and a master's degree in public policy from Harvard University. He moved to Braddock in 2001 to serve with AmeriCorps and start a non-profit organization, Braddock Redux.
Fetterman won the Braddock mayoral election in 2005 by a single vote and was re-elected in 2009, 2013, and 2017.[2] As mayor, Fetterman drew international attention for trying to revitalize the economy in Braddock, with an article in The New York Times, an appearance on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report, and a Levi's jeans ad. He has made equality,[specify] environmental protection, gay rights, immigration, and marijuana legalization major campaign issues. He ran for the United States Senate in 2016, but was defeated in the Democratic primary. In 2018, he defeated incumbent Lieutenant Governor Mike Stack in the Democratic primary[3] and was subsequently elected as lieutenant governor in the general election, along with incumbent Tom Wolf as governor.

I voted for him in the Senate primary because of his support for Bernie. Hes moved a bit to the right of Bernie on fracking, but there are many similarities.
