I don’t even know how many pages it is

Is that really a defense? I've read lots of things. I don't know how many pages any of them are.

I'm sure he's also familiar with the numbers 14 and 88.

If you want to get Scott Perry out of Congress consider donating to his opponent Janelle Stelson.

Yes, she's a former Republican. Yes, she's a centrist. Yes, she technically lives in Lancaster. But that's the best we can hope for in this district and she's a damn sight better than that asshole.

And even at that, it seems more like the registration as a republican was more something she just forgot to update for a long time for her. Not like it was a recent shift in her views/voting

“I did as many people did way back… I registered in the party that my parents were when I started out,” Stelson said. She said since she was in a job that required her not to participate in partisan politics, she had not given much thought to how she was registered.

“And really, what matters to me is not how one is registered but how you vote. And I voted for Joe Biden, Josh Shapiro, John Fetterman, Hillary, Barack Obama. Bob Casey. And when I started seriously considering becoming a part of politics instead of covering it, I took care of business.”

That’s a very central PA reason. My grandfather was one of those “voted for Eisenhower cause Lincoln won the war” Republicans until 2004.
