Let me be clear: This is nothing but a pitiful, desperate publicity stunt.
They literally could introduce a resolution calling for a ham sandwich to be our state bird.
This isnt going anywhere.
The sponsors know this better than anyone. 1/2
Senate Co-Sponsorship Memoranda
legis.state.pa.us
All of this: the bizarre snake-handling at the Ramada, the tin foil hat conspiracy theories, is demented carnival barking to distract from they *cant find any fraud whatsoever*
Zero. Their cases are quite seriously laughed out of court- even by the Trump appointees. 2/3

By Monday, our legislative term expires, because their election results havent been certified-because of a GOP lawsuit - they couldnt vote on this even if they were able to.
Twisted spectacle is the final refuge for the sad, the desperate, the sycophant, the snake-handler.
The grossest part of it all?
No one, from the President on down, honestly believes any of this.
No one.
In three weeks, its still just the same two sad cases of voter fraud in PA that, in the final irony, were attempting to both vote for the President.

I think the Republican senator from Pennsylvania is retiring, isn't he?
OAITW r.2.0
(23,818 posts)5. That works nicely.
He will be well funded in the race. He's become quite a hi-profile player in a very short term. Love his blunt honesty.

(2,766 posts)6. Great minds and all.
Ive been thinking hed be a fantastic replacement for Pat Toomey when Toomey steps down in 2023. I hope Fetterman and the party leaders in PA are thinking the same way.
DeSmet
(257 posts)7. We all know how important that second Senate seat is
I believe Fetterman can bring it home. Let's hope Washington is ready.

Should he go for our next governor or the senate? I am thinking Toomey's seat
