Shapiro to take office with mandate from Pennsylvania voters

HARRISBURG, Pa. — (AP) — Josh Shapiro, the Democratic governor-elect of Pennsylvania, will take office with a decisive mandate from voters, who overwhelmingly rejected a Republican drive to pare back abortion rights and voting laws in the premier battleground state. Shapiro maintains that he will veto any legislation that he views as undermining abortion rights or voting rights. For his part, Shapiro said he will pursue changes to voting laws — Election Day voter registration and automatic voter registration — that have seen no traction in the Republican-controlled Legislature. With Pennsylvania certain to be a battleground in the 2024 presidential election, the focus on election laws isn't fading. But, he also said work must be done on election laws to make them “transparent, secure and more quickly decided."

Midterms reinforce Christian voter trends on abortion, GOP

In Kentucky, a reliably Republican state, voters rejected a GOP-backed ballot measure aimed at denying any state constitutional protections for abortion. In contrast, about two-thirds of white evangelical voters in both Kentucky and Michigan voted against protecting abortion access. Only about one in 10 voters nationwide and across most states say abortion should be illegal in all cases, according to AP VoteCast. Even among white evangelical voters, while most say abortion should generally be illegal, only about two in 10 say abortion should be illegal in all cases. In each of those three states, roughly two-thirds or more of white evangelical Christian voters backed the GOP candidates.

If Tuesday’s vote defied the durable history of presidential parties taking heavy losses in a midterm election, it also reinforced an often-forgotten fact: These campaigns are a patchwork of thousands of races, not a nationwide contest.

Candidates who backed overturning Trump loss are rebuffed

Republicans made a striking decision earlier this year to nominate candidates for top statewide posts in swing states who backed overturning President Donald Trump's loss in 2020. Doug Mastriano, who commissioned buses to take Pennsylvanians to the Jan. 6, 2021, protests in Washington failed in his bid to become that state's governor. Mathew DePerno, an attorney who filed a lawsuit spreading Trump's election lies in Michigan in 2020, lost his bid to be that state's attorney general. More significant are the outcomes in the six states that clinched Joe Biden's win in 2020 and where Trump and his allies disputed his loss. In Georgia, Trump unsuccessfully backed a slate of election conspiracy theorists in the GOP primary in May, seeking revenge against incumbent Republicans who rebuffed his requests to overturn his loss.

Attorney General Josh Shapiro declared victory in the Pennsylvania governor’s race, keeping the state’s executive branch under Democratic control and alleviating concerns about his opponent undermining the 2024 election. With incumbent Tom Wolf term-limited out of office, Shapiro defeated Republican state Sen. Doug Mastriano to fill the open seat. But he struggled to raise funds and did not begin running television ads until late in the general election campaign. With Pennsylvania's Legislature expected to stay in Republican control, Shapiro has vowed to veto any new restrictions. In September, a Mastriano campaign adviser called for supporters to push the Republican Governors Association to get involved in the race.

The Oz campaign hopes that it can win over enough Shapiro voters to close the gap with Fetterman. “I have a small group of friends that will stick to the Republican Party and vote for Republican candidates,” she said.

Nowhere in sight — and not even mentioned — was Doug Mastriano, the GOP nominee for governor against Democrat Josh Shapiro. Like Mastriano, Oz has been endorsed by Trump. But unlike Mastriano, Oz hasn't been warmly embraced by Trump's most loyal voters — the ones that form Mastriano's far-right base. “It's like he’s still running a primary campaign,” said Republican campaign strategist Bob Salera. Oz, meanwhile, emphasizes national GOP talking points on crime and inflation, aiming to persuade swing voters and even Democrats.
