Will Mastriano still be a member of the state senate?

[blue neen]

Or did he have to give that up to run for governor?

1. Yes

But he’s been that for a while. There is limited damage he can do there.

He is on the truly dangerous spectrum of politics.

2. Mastriano did a lot of really shitty things to Gov. Wolf and to Pennsylvanians during covid.

He was a huge whiner about masks, I remember that much. I'm going to have to look all this up.

Mastriano is just a horrible person, no two ways about it.

3. He is a leading asshole of PA

There is no question that he has all the charm of syphilis, but imagine this…

Yes, he gave Wolf a lot of lip. Well, guess what, Masturbator, Governor Shapiro whooped your ass, now sit down.

Also, what happens to the Krasner impeachment now that the house has flipped?

5. Hard to believe someone can be worse than Darryl Metcalfe,

but Mastriano probably is.

4. Oz is relieved he will never have to go to the grocery store again

or stay in Pennsylvania another day. Mastriano should be banned from The Capitol for life.

6. He has an odd-numbered seat (SD-33) and it wasn't up this go-around

and the state doesn't require resignation to run for another office (e.g., Josh Shapiro was still AG while he ran for Governor). However Philly DOES require city-elected officials to resign if running for another office in the city, so we had 4 City Council members and 1 City Controller resign this year in order to run for mayor next year. Alternately, when Malcolm Kenyatta ran for U.S. Senate in the primary, he remained a state Rep. despite being a Philly resident (but not in a city office running for another city office).

Mastriano needs to be thrown in prison before that election happens though.

7. Thanks for that info!

It's a shame that we will stay have to pay Mastriano's salary. POS.

8. You're welcome

I had looked up his Senate District number earlier because I know only 1/2 of them were up this year (including mine, who was a shoo-in as a Philly/Montco District).
