Philadelphia is not all left-wing. It is like NYC (conservative Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Gravesend). Some areas of Philadelphia is clearly right-leaning politically. The voters who voted for Republican Beth Grossman for District Attorney are in the northeast Philly area that are close to the Philly suburbs. Who are they?

Krasner voters are obviously liberal Democrats, black voters, Hispanic voters, etc. in the center of the city. What does it say about Philadelphia?

Could FOP of Philadelphia and Krasner find common ground on some criminal justice issues? Any?

This is the Fraternal Order of Police we're talking about here. They're usually a lot more reactionary than the police chiefs. So probably not.

No. Crush the saboteurs.

You can't have anarchy. One side gives, the other gives. Cut the police pay if they continue stop and frisk. Charge murderers to a maximum death penalty.

No. Krasner should stick to his campaign promises and give those abusive police officers hell for the injustice they've dealt.

This is a bit off topic, but why do I see some right-wing posters on here who've endorsed Krasner?

Krasner won with 75% of the vote. that doesn't sound very "divided" to me.

Yes, Krasner has a massive mandate from the citizens of Philadelphia to enact his agenda. I don't see what the problem is.
