Yesterday was the Pennsylvania primary, which are closed (Dems can only vote in the Dem primary, etc) and had some interesting results:
- TFG got 83.5% of the vote, which means 16.5% voted against someone else not running. Nikki Haley received a whopping 155,829 votes,
- Joe Biden, otoh, got 93.1% of the vote, and only lost 68,046 votes to a non-competitor (Dean Phillips)
- Total turnout for Dems was 990,000 with 96% reporting, total turnout for the GOP was 940,000 with 100% reporting
- the difference in reporting also means Dems are still voting by mail in force, while the GOP still has not learned its lesson
I cannot see how this isn't a 5-alarm fire for the GOP in a key battleground state
