Oh Shit.
It simply never ends does it, Troll?
Gretchen – why? Why would we be better off with Argall in the Senate? Reform minded Republicans need to help elect the Dem candidate.
Very interesting looking at the vote totals between the 2nd & 3rd rounds, and the 4th and 5th as well. Don’t have time to explain the oddity here, just look at the balloting…and someone please explain to me how the 3rd ballot happened w/ the candidates who were on it after the results of the 2nd one came in; ditto the 5th ballot vis-a-vis the 4th. Hmmm, what was up with that?????
Now, I know Arrow’s Impossibility Theorem as well as just about anyone, but, I’m really not sure what was going on there between those respective rounds of balloting!!!!!
??????
The existence of third, fourth and fifth candidates etc. is designed to split conservative or reform votes to enable the insider to win in the end.
In an “open primary” the candidates split votes up to enable the insider to win.
This process had to be more closely managed so that Argall could come out on top on the last ballot.
Now they want to send one of the Payjacking ringleaders to the Senate.
Hack, Cough, Hack.
Gretchen Sterns didn’t win? Awwwwwwwwww. I thought she was one of the great rising stars of the “conservative movement” in Pennsylvania. I guess there are only two problems with that wishful thinking, she got very few votes from those who know her best, and she wants to be part of the Republican establishment that the “conservative movement” hates so much.
Despite being on the Executive Committee of the Schuylkill County Republican Committee, she received only 6 votes on the first ballot. Much like Russ Diamond, it seems that Gretchen Sterns can’t get close to enough votes from those who know her best.
When asked how she would raise the money necessary to compete, Gretchen Sterns didn’t mention YCOP, Bob Guzzardi, or the “conservative movement.” Instead, PolitickerPA.com reports that “Pottsville lawyer Gretchen Sterns said the state Republican Party would help supplement her war chest.” Isn’t the PA GOP the enemy of YCOP, Bob Guzzardi, and the “conservative movement”?
It must be disappointing for the “conservative movement” to deal with yet another failure. I guess you have to add it to the list with Pat Toomey, Russ Diamond, and so many others. So much for the “conservative movement” getting a foot-hold in Pennsylvania, especially when it can’t even get a foothold within the state’s minority party.
You’re huffing and puffing about a secret ballot run by insiders?
Too bad this wasn’t opened to the public to decide. Then we would see if your claims had any merit.
By the way…when will we see your name on a ballot? Or are you happy with the puppy dog role, following others around and letting them do the hard work?
yea thats a great idea, hand this seats to a dem and we will never get it back, there are to many union, and people demanding handouts in this district to assume that a republican can win this back if a dem takes it.
I heart you too, Stallone.
