I want to know who was responsible for the Philadelphia

transit strike. I don't trust anything anymore. Trump campaign knows they stand no chance without PA. Suddenly we get a transit strike in the most Democratically populous city which will depress voter turnout. I smell Guiliani with his mob connections.

I so need this to be over!!!!!! Hillary MUST win!!!

The consensus is that most people have to travel less than a mile to their polling place in philly and that the strike will not be a problem.

that's the problem. Especially if you have to drop off and pick up kids from childcare. That leaves little time to get in the long lines.

The contract expired on Halloween, they always do this. Last time they worked through it and got the deal done, the time before was a strike.

Neither the state run SEPTA nor the union wants Orange Julius to win.
