When Admiral Joe Sestak ran against Toomey six years ago, I was happy to vote for him. He is intelligent, progressive, and a man who should have been in the Senate, as opposed to Toomey, who should have been a city council member in a small town.
I also voted for Katie McGinty in the 2014 primary when she ran against Tom Wolf. She is an environmentalist, was an experienced executive, and would have made a great governor.
Now McGinty and Sestak are running for the nomination to take on Toomey in the race for the U.S. Senate seat.
I’m supporting McGinty. If Sestak could not beat Toomey in the initial contest, he will do even worse when Toomey is the incumbent with all the advantages that go with incumbency.
McGinty will be a fresh face, and she will give Toomey a run for his money, which Toomey has lots of.
(By the way, I really like being a Democrat. You have to choose between the two best candidates as opposed to choosing between the least worst candidate, i.e., Trump vs. Cruz vs. Walker.)
