Results for Congress, State House and Senate

From the DoS website, here are the winners in the contested races for US House and State Senate. The results for the State House are here, but of note is that Don Costa (D), D21, may or may not have won this seat. The vote looks too close to call and I expect a recount.

US Rep:

PA-03 – Kathy Dahlkemper (D)
PA-05 – Mark McCraken (D) – Glenn Thompson®
PA10 – Chris Hackett®
PA-18 – Steve O’Donnell (D)

—————————————————————————-

State Senate PA-1 Larry Farnese (D)
PA-13 Lloyd Smucker®
PA-15 Judy Hirsh (D)
PA-17 Lance Rogers®
PA-23 Gene Yaw®
PA-33 Richard Alloway II®
PA-39 Bompiani (D)
PA-47 Sean Ramaley (D) Vogel®


The biggest surprise was Thompson winning in the 5th

He managed to win despite being heavily outspent by other candidates. Oh course, he won with less than 20% of the vote. It is sometimes hard to predict the outcome when you have such a large field with several viable candidates.

he won

because peterson endorsed him. don’t worry, the lemmings in the fifth district will vote however john peterson tells them to.

How many voters actually knew about that endorsement?

Thompson didn’t have the resources to communicate that information with voters.

o'donnell - hafer

this was a real close race with o’donnell winning. Final tallies not counting absentees had odonnell at 44.8 and hafer at 41.3. After absentees are counted, that will likely shrink. Nonetheless… great job Beth Hafer… i have a feeling she’ll be back. And good luck in November Steve ODonnell.

odonnell's past in hiding

it is my opinion… after seeing the objective court documents 7/21/97 disclosure statement that steve odonnell is as DWJESS55 discovered… a very unethical person, trying to hide his past. Not to mention his money mismanagement… u call that ethics… stealing from taxpayers and non-profits and now running for congress… how disturbing. Not very smart to elect a turkey 4 a turkey shoot. No moral highground with either of them.
