Mastriano is off the radar with his support of Act 77 and opposition to removing Larry Krasner and completely supports letting him keep his job. Mastriano says that Krasner won a second term with 70% of the vote. What he never mentioned was that Krasner was elected with just 160K votes when there are about a million registered voters in Philadelphia. That's much closer to 16%. Why voters didn't turn out to vote is beyond me. Lou Barletta seems to be the best choice as far as being able to win and still keep to conservative ideals. No one is going to be a 100% but first you have to get elected. Mastriano is out, out, out. Rinos never stick to ideals and only stick to whatever the left threatens them with. Anyone but Mastriano. I forget whether he has to give up his seat to run but if that's the case maybe it would be a good idea to primary him in his own district so he can't come back after loses to Shapiro.

I wasn't aware of that,any supporter of Krapper is no one that deserves my vote.

I heard it on Dom Giordano's show this afternoon coming home from food shopping at the Bare Shelves Brandon food market.

Here we have State Senator Doug Mastriano, coming to Uber- Liberal Philly, D.A., Larry Krasner*s defense * after State Senator Jake Corman suggested that Krasner should be impeached.

Mastriano noted that Krasner won re-election, with about 70% of the vote. Said Mastriano * *You know, Philadelphia * they want Krasner. They like him. That*s a huge mandate.*

Mastriano was one of the Senators that forced through Act 77 and got it to the Governor's desk and now to get rid of it they have to have the Governor sign off on it. Act 77 is the Unconstitutional voting law that gave us mail in voting and Mastriano is and was quite aware of the significance of that Act being a permanent platform for electing democrats and eliminating Republicans from getting elected. Does he sound like he's on the side of gun owners? I think not. This guy Mastriano would stab us in the back as he has demonstrated.
