Re: PA “Forensic Audit” of 2020 POTUS Election [PART DXXVIII] – PA Election Results
{}

What had been prepared yesterday for distribution was rewritten/reorganized in light of
what emerged this-a.m.; will annotate what emerged, starting with this verse:

Trump joins Oz to stump, Barnette squanders polling bump,

Fetterman recovers from a stroke, Mastriano calls out the woke
Shapiro’s COVID positive, mail-in ballots deposited,
Senate leads to recount vote, Barletta just a footnote.

*Yesterday*, I conveyed why what you’ve been reading during this pre-Primary period
has been as credible as possible, often derivative of nose-to-nose chats; omitted was the
gravamen of my fealty for Doug as it matured while this groupie watched him in-action.
I’ve tried not to bug him in multiple settings, merely providing instant-feedback [minor]
and effusive-accolades [such as his capacity to engage with an enthralled PLC Forum
where, for example, he repeatedly back-slapped in back-and-forths with Barletta]. He has
thought through his policy stances and has shown how they interdigitate philosophically;
his stump speech wanders afield [it’s not canned] as he discusses all major topical issues.

I have enticed local-GOP key-thinkers [supporting Bartos; claiming to be uncommitted]

to attend any one of his events to observe how he wows the crowd, if for no other reason
than to dispel the notion that he envisions himself to be an Evangelical Egotist; I failed,
but used the opportunity to express why/how initial appreciation for his election stance
blossomed into awareness that this guy is an activist, a do-er, a truly Honest Injun. Now,
these individuals are invited to convey feedback as to what I cudda missed when engaged
in review of this “politician.” Some people are personally unapproachable, such as radio
personality Dom Giordano [when I saw him @ the “2000 Mules” debut in Bensalem];
amazingly, he lambasted Doug for excluding the “FAKE MEDIA” from his rallies, knowing
full well that there are alternative methods [such as via Newsmax] to help the electorate
become educated without feeling compelled to involve overtly biased “journalists.” It is
shocking that these pundits have already allowed themselves to declare him to be a loser
in November, noting the campaign-season traditionally launches after Labor Day.

If anyone [except the Gale Brothers] hears/reads anything disparaging of Doug that has
not been addressed in these Memos, please so-inform and it will be disseminated with a
cogent response; elucidation of voting aberrations is deferred, for this focus is on races.

I’m generally pleased with the outcomes; the major disappointment is with Barnette,
whose campaign was impeccable until the coda-week, when she seems to have melted—
surprisingly—as epitomized by her sudden reluctance to endorse whomever would win.
Emulating Mastriano, she had thought-through her stances and communicated lucidly;
perhaps a smooth media-type [Oz] or a monied straight-talker [McCormick] will prove
more equipped to weather the general election challenges, but it was fun to conjure how
her combativeness wudda co-opted Fetterman’s presumed “populist” attractiveness by
simply/repetitively exposing HIS wizard-behind-the-curtain, Commie Bernie Sanders.
Granted, ALL of the attacks on her cudda been easily exposed for their abject deceit
[particularly Hannity’s use of the Dem-tactic of showing her pictured “near” Proud Boys];
nevertheless, she didn’t escape an expectedly hot “kitchen” unscathed [lesson learned?].

Notwithstanding the overtly-biased media coverage infra, the essay [five takeaways from
the Pennsylvania primary election that was headed by my photo provided a balanced view
of “what we learned about Trump’s influence over the GOP, the Democratic rally behind
Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, and how abortion will be a major issue in the governor’s race.”
Most of hyperlinks herein are from a series of pieces c/o PoliticsPA [Thursday and Friday,
plus Challenging Night for Incumbents Across PA which addressed the state legislature].
Trump expanded his hold on the GOP; in the Senatorial race, Trump’s preferred candidate
tied with a more traditional rival and his governor pick notched a commanding victory.

Gubernatorial

Now that Doug Mastriano won, he claimed a “mandate” and is broadening his reach to
non-GOP Dem-regions; he won 42% of the vote despite a full-court-press from eight
competitors and having been outspent 8:1. On Newsmax, he conveyed appreciation that
the others pledged support [probably except Gale]; he said he hadn’t talked with Kathy
about her reticence to mirror this customary posture [@ 4-minute] for post-primary party
unification is a “gimme” [vide supra et infra]. Listen Fridays to WWDB-860 a.m. @ noon,
when he’s interviewed regarding his policies/efforts [with a call-in] c/o Don Beishl, Jr.

A leftie-article couldn’t resist conveying its bias in the title: “Gov pick could turn election
lies into action; Mastriano is not the only candidate who won a Republican primary after
embracing Trump’s lie that the 2020 election was stolen. But no GOP contender did more
to subvert that presidential election — and no one may be better positioned to subvert
the next one — than did Mastriano.” For weeks leading up to his victory, GOP insiders
scrambled to halt his rise, pointed fingers, and generally scratched their heads over how
the party let a candidate they see as unelectable in November become the nominee;
some even advocated that the state party chair [Lawrence Tabas] resign, despite the fact
that it’s a “free country” and, thus, that the party’s role isn’t to suppress participation.
Dems also are recognizing that Mastriano might beat Shapiro, as Shapiro sued because
he feels the school funding system in Wilkes-Barre Area and five other PA school districts
fails to provide all students with a high-quality public education. [Noted is the fact that
Barletta isn’t running again for office and has conveyed reflections on the race.]

 Lieutenant Guv

Delrosso won in a race that seemingly was determined by lotsa $ via ads.

Senatorial

The Oz/McCormick campaigns are both optimistic about winning the nearly deadlocked
primary; Oz didn’t take Trump‘s advice and claim victory. McCormick hired a GOP
operative known for having challenged elections; Mike Roman, director of Election Day
operations for Trump’s 2020 campaign, later played a key role in fighting PA’s election
results. Opinions were split, with most predicting Oz would win; the fear was raised that
the Uniparty was stealing the election from Oz by delaying results in Allegheny County.

Again, regarding Kathy, the onslaught was overwhelming [Basic Questions DON’T Linger
About Barnette, The Candidate Shaking Up The Race, and Wikipedia removes U.S. Senate
candidate's page ahead of PA primary], but she shudda embraced/countered attacks as
advised [using colorful lingo] by J.J. "Ace of Spades" Sefton ["Lummis just fucked herself.
She shudda doubled, tripled and quadrupled down."] who’d supported her. The error of
not endorsing the winner was compounded when it wasn’t corrected during subsequent
interviews with Bret Baier/Steve Bannon; instead, she blamed Sean Hannity for her loss,
as confirmed in many Internet searches. Hannity rejected this both on radio [@ 3:45 p.m.]
and on TV on 5/18/2022. She felt he’d invoked Antifa/Leftist talking points; he stood firm.

Congressional

Congressional candidate [and aspiring Squad Member] Summer Lee declared victory over
Steve Irwin in the bitterly contested 12th Congressional District, but Irwin did not concede
and Lee acknowledged there are still votes to be counted in the razor-thin race; she had
been opposed by AIPAC and, presumably, if she wins the primary, it will again attack her.
For the fourth primary election cycle, Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick defeated his primary
challenger; in the 8th District, Trump-endorsed Jim Bognet defeated Mike Marsicano. And
Guy Ciarrocchi and Scheller won. I’ve known Guy for a quarter-century [when we worked
together as prudent anti-tobacco activists to defeat an extreme anti-tobacco proposal
that would have criminalized any adult smoking in a car also containing a minor; he was
State Senator Melissa Hart’s Chief-of-Staff and later lobbied for the Philly Archdiocese.

State Legislature

Lehigh Valley’s tight Coleman-Browne and Miller-Zrinski Senate primary races may hinge
on 1200 provisional ballots; GOPe incumbents State Rep. Stan Saylor [lost] and state Sen.
Pat Browne [losing] seemingly were successfully primaried by right-wing candidates.
