That is where the meat of the Repuke votes are, Greensburg and surrounding area. Lamb must absolutely clean Saccone’s clock in Allegheny for his margin to hold.

Greene County should just secede and join West Virginia, but there are not that many votes there.

Washington County is neck and neck. Saccone needs to win by a big margin there.
