🎃 Arnold Schwarzenegger called gerrymandering "the evil of all evils." It fuels the partisan divide and allows politicians to choose their voters.
🎃 Do your candidates agree, or are they quietly hoping for another chance to gerrymander PA maps?

Make YOUR plan to vote.
Here's a voting option you may not know: on-demand mail ballot voting, available in most PA counties until 5 PM on October 27.

ALMOST NOTHING GETS DONE in our legislature
It's the everlasting equation of PA politics.

❓3/3 PA deserves better than a full-time legislature that can't find time to vote on much-needed bipartisan solutions.
Do your candidates want to fix this?

📊2/3 How does full-time @PALegis compare with other states?
Leaders say the problem is divided legislature, but many bills with broad bipartisan support go nowhere.
It's not a partisan issue.
Leaders block bills their top donors don't want, even when most Pennsylvanians agree.

Rural PA: if you’re voting by mail put it in the mail. USPS is delaying postmarks & delivery.
No one is watching out for rural voters.
It’s almost like they think we don’t count.
Prove them wrong.
USPS has instituted new policies of delaying postmarking of mail ballot and delivery.
ProPublica shows this has led more people's votes to be tossed, *&* that this is affecting disproportionately rural (red) counties with worse service to begin with.

Reminder: Mail ballots must be RECEIVED by your county elections office by 8 p.m. Election Day. A postmark is not sufficient.

According to @SpotlightPA it appears @PALegis is on track to pass fewer bills than in any legislative session since at least 1973-74.
PA needs new legislative rules & leaders in both chambers ready to serve all PA rather than their own top donors. spotlightpa.org/news/2026/10…

“Imagine if we had spent all of the time & energy & resources that have been spent on this redistricting war & instead focused on something like making life more affordable for Americans.”
Note to legislators, governors & all who want to rig our maps: voters don't like cheaters.
When a #gerrymander ends up being a dummymander, we're not sympathetic.

⏳Wondering why so little gets done in Harrisburg?
💵 Follow the money & check who makes the rules.
PA allows leaders total power over district maps, caucus budget, legislative agenda, flow of campaign funds.
Isn't it time to #FixHarrisburg? #skillgames

Did you know? More than half of all Pennsylvania mail ballots have already been returned, and the mail ballot return rate is higher this year than it was four years ago.
Make sure you return your ballot as soon as it's ready so your voice can be heard!
You can return it by USPS or by delivering it in-person at a county designated location: vote.pa.gov/returnballot

Even a court-ordered deadline isn't enough to get PA legislative leaders to do their job: enact needed solutions.
We shared a story on the skill game impasse in 2025. Here's the next installment.
It's time to @FIxHarrisburg so bipartisan bills get a vote.
