State Rep. Ryan Mackenzie from the Allentown area won the Republican primary in PA-07 to take on Susan Wild. Does anyone here know how moderate or radical he is compared to other GOP primary candidates and if this changes the trajectory of that race?
He's right-wingy. He's no Charlie Dent (who I met by the way and was viewed by people as a "very mainstream Northeastern Republican"), but then again I don't know if that would have helped him win the party nomination anyway. This district is basically split right down the middle. It's ultra competitive - and so the nominees are going to go to not moderates (as one might think), but two people that represent the interests of the D and R bases.
