So far I've heard it's slowing going and there is low turnout across the city. That bodes well for Vega.

We will see.....

Not from Philly, so this is not first-hand info, but one of my Philly contacts told me there are folks distributing pro-Vega pamphlets with no “paid for by” disclaimer.  Vega campaign saying they aren’t sanctioning it, while the distributors are saying the Vega campaign is paying them.   😅

If he loses, he needs to realize that there is a need for police. Attack police brutality, not police officers and their families as a whole

If the Vega campaign did indeed pay these folks to distribute lit that didn’t have a “paid for” disclaimer, yeah, it’s very much in violation of election law.

The Solitary Confinement ban in Allegheny is winning big time so far.

22k ballots in (10,320 mail-ins & 11,700 polling place)
9% of divisions reporting


Krasner   13,311   69.6%
Vega         5,798   30.3%
Write-in         17     0.1%


EDIT: Another 15k ballots came in while I was typing. With 20% of divisions reporting, Krasner drops slightly to 68.3%

Forget 50/50. Krasner may end up with 2/3 of the vote when this is all over.

Map so far looks like South Philly, Northeast Philly, and the U Penn area is going for Vega, the rest for Krasner.

If Krasner wins, which seems likely—do we think that speaks more to incumbency advantage or actual support for Krasner over Vega?

Krasner is dragging some pretty liberal judges to wins here, so I think it might be at least partially support for Krasner.

With Gainey beating Peduto in PGH, I’m starting to think today was a victory for progressives.

Big victory for progressives so far...pretty much everywhere.

Looks like dems hold SD-22 also.

If Krasner wins, the FOP will go ballistic, but oh well.

Police unions should not endorse candidates for their bidding....

The FOP and Krasner will continue to feud

Krasner needs to focus on prosecuting murderers, etc or else Philly will have violent crime every summer.... a lot of cops don't even want to deal with Philly anymore

He may not even run again in 2025, he may run for Mayor of Philly in 2023 or Senate in 2024

Krasner has no chance of winning statewide, but Mayor probably wouldn't be impossible.

How do you think the relationship with him and the FOP will look like in a second term?
