Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –
Lou Barletta, “represents a blue collar district in the northeastern portion of the state, probably starts out as the favorite,” said Real Clear Politics, which said “Barletta poses an interesting matchup…” with incumbent Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. Bob Casey Jr. As millions recall, President Donald J. Trump carried the state in 2016, part of the crack of the once-vaunted ‘blue wall’ that Democrats have held for decades.
Incumbents overwhelmingly win in the Senate and House. So, the odds are typically in the favor of the person holding a seat in Washington.
Will this year be different? The video below may speak louder than many polls.
There are 35 U.S. Senate seats up for grabs, and the entire House of Represenatives is up for reelection every 2 years. So we’ll keep an eye on Barletta vs. Casey, as one of the 470 matchups that make politics this year a full contact blood-and-money sport.
MHProNews will reach out to several campaigns, to see where the candidates stand on key issues. Stay tuned.
