Democrats have declared victory in a Pennsylvania state House seat that Republicans held for nearly 30 years.
In a special election for the state House’s 12th District seat, Democrat Brandon Dukes is leading over Republican Scott Timko by less than 100 votes, 8,434 to 8,346, with 99 percent of votes counted.
Dukes told the local Cranberry Eagle Tuesday night, “I’m ecstatic. I’m shocked.”
“I’m still processing this. We just flipped a Trump plus-18 seat, and we flipped a red seat that’s been red for almost 30 years. We made history,” Dukes said.
Great, now do something with it.
lol. They will do what the people want. Or at least what the lobbies tell them the people want.
“Since Democrats now have an UltraMajority we’re moving forward with our People First Policy. 1% lower health insurance premiums, 1% increased minimum wage, and you can say you’re whatever gender you want! We’ll try to do something about all the awful things that have been taking over the country, but even with a 99% Democratic Congress we can’t even name big companies in a negative seeming way, because they pay us a lot of money to not do that.”
