In reply to the discussion: Republican Panic Grows After Mastriano Wins [View all]wnylib
(26,446 posts)49. Sincere question. Do you think that
it is improbable that there will be violence during the midterms and that some of that violence will be in PA?
Outside of Philly and Pittsburgh (and maybe Erie) there are hard core MAGAs in PA.
I expect to see some poll intimidation and attempts to alter election results in some precincts, not just in PA, but in MAGA country everywhere.
NPR had a program a couple weeks ago about poll workers around the country preparing for intimidation and possible violence during voting and especially afterward, when tallying results.
Mastriano supported the stolen 2020 election lie and was at the Capitol on J6, so would he spout the same lies if he loses in PA? And what will his MAGA voters do if he loses?
