PA-7 Congressional race—Still deciding? Food for thought…Everyman? or Corruption Fighter?

Here are the questions I asked myself:

1) Who can beat MacKenzie in the fall?
2) Who is best prepared to hit the ground running and make a real difference in Congress on day one?

I will support whoever the Democratic candidate is… However, at this moment, I believe that RYAN CROSSWELL is the candidate who can win over McKenzie in the fall… And will use his considerable legal skills to route out corruption, and make sure the Congress follows the law…👌😉💙

Pennsylvania’s 7th District has been close to evenly split in recent elections. This year, the Democratic primary is also sending signals about what matters to the party.

There is no Democratic candidate running for Representative in PA’s 122nd district. Christian Bartulovich is running as a write-in candidate on both the Republican and Democratic ballots and is worth your consideration.

We all know what we are doing May 5th! Trump loves ratings let’s show him what he will never have!

As Stephen Colbert enters the final stretch of his run on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, he’s bringing in one of his biggest guests yet. Former President Barack Obama is set to join Colbert on May 5 for what will be his first interview from the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago.

The conversation arrives at a pivotal moment for both men. Colbert’s late-night era is winding down after CBS announced the franchise’s end, while Obama prepares to unveil one of the most significant projects of his post-presidency. Their long on-air history adds another layer to a booking already generating major attention.
