He never had your vote. He's counting on the uninformed, the ignorant, and the nasty.

Age old ploy, and it often works because the electorate's collective memory is very short

The R primary voters seemed to prefere "none of the above" as neither Oz nor McCormick was getting out of the 20s in polls. Oz' name recognition is probably what helped him scrape by, not the Trump endorsement.

a RINO before the endorsement, but I guess conveniently forgot that. Now we're supposed to forget the endorsement. Personally, I always thought he was a RINO. An opportunist and a RINO. Not that I would vote for him. He ain't from around these parts.

If so I'd bet SOMETHING would be done by the FBI and law enforcement other than just telling him to MOVE.

No doubt the GOP will pour money and resources into the race. No doubt John Fetterman will eat them alive. I think if he can remain upright, Fetterman will take this in a walk.
