In the Senate race Bob Casey has a 49% to 33% lead over Bob Smith. Smith and Steve Welch attacked each other for voting for Democrats in the past during the primary that probably left a bad taste in the mouth of Welch supporters and the state GOP. Smith's name recognition went up but so did his unfavorables.The more people get to know him the less they like him.
Democratic Attorney General candidate Kathleen Kane has the early lead over David Freed 42%-33% with 25% undecided. The hard fought primary with Patrick Murphy helped her get her name out there and Murphy's endorsement helps to close the the ranks of Democrats.Patrick is always a class act.
“Primaries are never easy. But it’s important to
remember that this was a family fight. Now that it’s over, we must come together
and rally behind our nominee. That’s why I am endorsing Kathleen Kane for
Attorney General. Because in the end, Kathleen is Pennsylvania’s best choice for
Attorney General,” Murphy said.
The contests for Auditor General and Treasurer are a wash at this point.
In other political news Nancy Pelosi will be in town for a wedding and will make a side trip to help out 17th CD Democratic nominee Matt Cartwright raise money at a 10:30 a.m. lunch June 9 at the Radisson at Lackawanna Station hotel in Scranton. That's early for this nocturnal blogger and a bit expensive.
The Republicans are always looking for some sort of boogeyman and the soft spoken Grandmother from Sodom on the San Andreas fits the bill. Lately Chicago style Democrats (corrupt)has replaced San Francisco Democrats (gay) in their lexicon.

Here's some truth, Cartwright's opponent won't be able to raise even a few $1,000. This is nothing more than phoney rich guy Cartwright raising money so he can start paying himself back the $380,000 he lent his campaign. Probably at a much higher interest rate than anyone of us could get at a bank. This would never be told in Gort unless it was a Republican doing it.
