Her dad was a policeman and her mother was a hostess in a diner. That message was supposed to convince us that she should be a Senator? MHV is getting a political lightweight.
Answer Desk-
I guess her leaving politics is a political story, since her name would keep being floated to run for various offices. I’m assuming she’s there to use her political connections to lobby officials to grease the wheels to help MHV start companies.
However, despite that, I still think she is a good choice to run for state rep in her district.
And we should care about this why?
Don’t worry – she’ll try to go back through the revolving door soon enough.
She could still run for her state house district.
It is a loss for Pennsylvania Politics, but good for her. Good luck Katie
Militia Hill Ventures sounds like a rightwing lobbyist, or the reincarnation of Blackwater Security.
Katie is the worst. Proud Dem so happy to vote for Toomey. No reluctance at all. Couldnt vote for her as an untalented empty suit cheerleader. Please let us never see her on the ballot again. Well, she may run for President in 2020. Only thing better than losing Governor and Senator is President,right?
At least she got rid of that pesky lie that she was the first in her family to go to college in her new bio.
