that’s the problem here. when I talk to an average voter in PA that isn’t overtly partisan, their perception is that republicans suck, but democrats are letting it happen.

that's a great pitch to the highly engaged voter, but how does that work with the average person that doesn't like politics and doesn't consistently vote?
