including the local one linked to here, would stop calling PA a "swing state". When it comes to Presidential elections, they finally started to acknowledge back in 2012 that PA goes for the Democrat every time (thanks to the big dark blue cities here that are able to muster the hundreds of thousands of votes extra margin needed to flip PA into the blue), and has done so since 1988.

Wolf plans on vetoing that bill and they don't have enough in the state Senate to override.

I expect that she will be able to rally women in the state though. She did win PA in the 2008 primary.
