The former Pa. Senator’s campaign, as well as a pro-Santorum Super PAC, are telling Iowa viewers that he is the true conservative in the race.
Good morning politicos, and welcome to the Buzz. Don’t forget to check PoliticsPA later today for our Ups & Downs: Redistricting edition.
Dauphin GOP Chair John McNally announced for the 15th district today, while others think Pa. Rep. Ron Marsico has the inside track. Update: 2010 LG hopeful Steve Johnson is also in the mix.
Conservatives aren’t the only ones opposed to the multi-state foreclosure settlement the Obama Administration and attorneys general nationwide are pushing. Wednesday, Pennsylvanians for a Fair Settlement, a major community Labor coalition, launched in opposition of the de facto foreclosure plan.
They don’t just have each other to worry about. This week the NRCC attacked Jason Altmire and Mark Critz over a controversial oil pipeline.
The Critz camp rolls out 33 endorsements, including former AFL-CIO President Bill George of Beaver County. Most are from Cambria County.
Good morning politicos, and welcome to the Buzz. There was a flurry of evening activity in the Capitol last night: the Senate passed a redistricted congressional map, while the House shot down an EITC/charter school bill AND a vouchers-themed amendment.
Now that the new map is all but finalized, PoliticsPA takes a look at which incumbent congressmen and women will be the top targets in 2012.
And the team player of the week award goes to: Elder Vogel (R-Beaver). The Pa. Senator initially cast his vote against Republicans’ congressional redistricting plan, but when the final tally came to a 25-25 tie, switched and voted in the affirmative.
Senate Democrats have released their own version of the new congressional map. Since Republicans have the Governor’s mansion and majorities in the Pa. House and Senate, it’s unlikely to go anywhere. But it’s interesting to look at.
Do you agree that ByteDance should be forced to divest TikTok?
