Great news! Barletta is exactly the person who can retain Trump's monster vote surge in PA, an immigration hardiner.
His proven record on immigration as mayor of Hazleton will bring the blue collar Biden democrat from Northeast PA in full force to vote for him against out of touch Casey.
As of now, how would you rate this particular race? Safe R, Likely R, Lean R, Tilt R, Tossup, Tilt D, Lean D, Likely D, Safe D, or something else?
Likely R, Crimedelphia isn't turning out for uninspiring Casey.
The monster vote of Western, Central and especially Northeastern PA is, they want an extra body in the Senate too keep illegals out of the country.
Okay, we get it. You hate black people. Anyway, Casey needs to hold his margins in the Philly suburbs, and if he does, it won't really matter if turnout in Philly drops a bit .
I'd say he hates Hispanic people/immigrants more. And the Philly area, including the city, only casts 30% of the vote statewide. He's right that the margins upstate will determine if Casey lives or dies. The northeast Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area has traditionally been a pillar of the D coalition.
