I'm looking a counties across Pennsylvania tonight Dr. Mehmet Oz leading here in York County where I live in Bucks County and to the north along the New Jersey border some of his strongest showings in those counties like Monroe and Pike.



Kathy Barnette did win Montgomery County just outside Philly where she lives.

The final votes coming in from places like York County where I live and Lancaster County due east of me and it looks like the Amish broke for Kathy Barnette she is winning Lancaster County with 31 percent of the vote Dr. Oz and McCormick tied at 27 percent each.



Dr. Oz winning here in York County a core county for President Trump in previous elections.



Oz is getting 31.11 percent of the vote to 26.56 percent for McCormick this county might help Oz get over the top.









Lets go to the vote count here and see what we get its said to be 99 percent with David McCormick 308,321 or 31.77 percent to Dr. Mehmet Oz 302,411 31.16 percent.    That's where it's at for US Senate in the Republican Primary here in Pennsylvania.



The Mail-In Vote Count 33,568 for McCormick to 23,636 for Oz.











                                                (1050 PM EASTERN US TIME)





Down to the wire in Pennsylvania tonight in the Republican Primary for US Senate the negative assault on Kathy Barnette drove her vote down but can Dr. Oz pull ahead of the well-organized mail-in vote primed effort of Establishment favorite David McCormick the "Conservative" according to some.



Last week when Susan B. Anthony List and Club for Growth pumped Barnette up that was obviously designed to keep votes away from Oz and I suspect ultimately the work of David McCormick's backers inside the Beltway in China wherever.



A lot of posts on the Pennsylvania board of Free Republic here promoting Barnette as well.



I voted my conscience for her.



President Trump's allies like Sean Hannity had to trash Kathy in hopes of driving her vote down.






In North Carolina Madison Cawthorn trailing in the 11th Congressional District GOP primary the incumbent who came under intense attack in recent weeks from Establishment forces President Trump put out a last minute social media message offering support yesterday.


The vote count 98 percent with Chuck Edwards the Establishment flack at 33.49 percent and Cawthorn at 31.72 percent.

            



DOUG MASTRIANO DECLARED THE WINNER IN THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY FOR GOVERNOR TONIGHT HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA.




In Franklin County, Pennsylvania the home county of Doug Mastriano he leads for Governor with 80 percent of the vote in the US Senate race its Oz at 30.27 percent, Barnette 29.84 percent and McCormick 23.97 percent.





                                                   (950 PM EASTERN US TIME)



So many counties votes missing right now like Lancaster, Lycoming (Williamsport) and the aforementioned Warren County.   We don't know who won for US Senate yet by a longshot.




I can see the count in Lebanon County a very conservative and religious county in mid-state so far it shows Dr. Oz leading David McCormick its 28.66 percent to 27.97 percent very narrow and Kathy Barnette back at 24.75 percent.    This county not finished reporting yet.



The media driven vote count at 38 percent here in Pennsylvania for the US Senate race David McCormick's lead fading with Dr. Mehmet Oz close behind its McCormick 31.86 percent to Mehmet Oz at 29.72 percent.   Kathy Barnette at 22.96 percent.




North Carolina's Congressional Race incumbent Madison Cawthorn down by a few percentage points with 89 percent of the vote counted in the 11th Congressional District 33.57 percent for Chuck Edwards and 31.55 percent for Cawthorn.



Lets talk funny mail-in vote in little Warren County in Northwestern Pennsylvania.



For Governor its 193 for Bill McSwain and only 104 for Doug Mastriano.



McSwain is the former federal prosecutor in Philadelphia blasted by President Trump for his unwillingness to look into a "Stolen Election" in 2020 hey maybe now we know why?



For sure we know there was this vote operation in Philly within the Republican Party exposed the other week but it could have been imitated right across this state I would not be surprised.



For US Senate David McCormick got 208 while Oz got 103 and Kathy Barnette 86.



Those the mail-in votes no count yet from the folks who showed up to vote in Warren County today.




68 percent of the vote counted in North Carolina's 11th Congressional District GOP Primary its Chuck Edwards at 33.94 percent and Madison Cawthorn the incumbent backed by President Trump at 31.54 percent.




The media driven vote count for Governor in the Pennsylvania GOP Primary Doug Mastriano pulling out in front with 22 percent of the vote counted 39.44 percent to Lou Barletta's 20.85 percent Mastriano endorsed by President Trump late in the game but Mastriano himself has endorsed Kathy Barnette for US Senate over Dr. Mehmet Oz backed by Trump.




Please stay tuned many counties in rural areas are out and my county York hasn't even reported real Election Day voters yet here in Pennsylvania.



The media driven vote count here in Pennsylvania says 21 percent of the vote counted it's David McCormick at 31.58 percent, Mehmet Oz at 28.22 percent and Kathy Barnette at 22.80 percent in the US Senate GOP race.





I looked at the mail-in vote situation here in my own country York it favored candidates like Bill McSwain for Governor and David McCormick for US Senate.



Two conservative challengers to long-time Republican State House members in my county did well in mail-ins though they lost there by comparatively narrow margins maybe a good sign for the people who showed up today choosing them over the incumbents.





The Pennsylvania Department of State vote count showing State Senator Doug Mastriano with 31.25 percent to 19.83 percent for Bill McSwain and 18.28 percent for Lou Barletta.





The online news media count in the Pennsylvania US Senate Republican Primary David McCormick 32.14 percent to Mehmet Oz 26.09 percent and Kathy Barnette 21.27 percent 11 percent of the vote counted.



We are at 63 percent of the vote counted in North Carolina's 11th Congressional District Republican Primary Chuck Edwards getting 34.24 percent to incumbent Madison Cawthorn's 31.17 percent.




Lt. Governor John Fetterman declared the winner over Congressman Conor Lamb and other challengers in the Democrat race for the US Senate in Pennsylvania.



The official Department of State count for the GOP Primary for Governor in Pennsylvania it's 23.61 percent for Doug Mastriano to 22.86 percent for Bill McSwain.




In North Carolina's District 11 US House Republican Primary Madison Cawthorn at 31 percent to Chuck Edwards 35 percent with 45 percent of the vote counted.






                                                  (9 PM EASTERN US TIME)



A FUNNY MAIL-IN VOTE OPERATION WAS UNCOVERED IN PHILADELPHIA A FEW WEEKS AGO BY THE PHILADEPHIA INQUIRER WITH TWO REPUBLICAN PARTY EMPLOYEES FIRED LAST WEEK FOLLOWING THAT NEWS.


ONE OF THOSE FIRED AN AIDE TO PENNSYLVANIA GOP CHAIRMAN LAWRENCE TABAS.



TABAS IS THE NON-TRUMP SUPPORTING GOP CHAIR AGREED TO BY PRESIDENT TRUMP'S FORCES AND HIS OPPONENTS HERE IN THE KEYTONE STATE EARLY IN 2020 AT THE REPUBLICAN STATE COMMITTEE MEETING.


IT WAS A DEAL THAT GAVE PRESIDENT TRUMP A CAMPAIGN MANAGER OF HIS OWN CHOOSING FOR THIS STATE.



THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER PUBLISHED THIS STORY LAST FRIDAY...LINK




The early vote for Governor in the GOP Primary here in Pennsylvania dominated by the funny mail-in vote with Bill McSwain a big winner there he leads the count at 26 percent followed by Lou Barletta and Dave White with Doug Mastriano down at 14 percent before we get to the actual people showing up at the polls vote.




And the winner of the mail-in funny vote in the Republican Primary for US Senate here in Pennsylvania is David McCormick he's leading a vote count 6 percent of the total and almost all of them mail in votes.



Most of the vote in the GOP Primary in the 4th Congressional District in Kentucky counted incumbent Thomas Massie declared the winner he has 75 percent of the vote with 61 percent counted.




From North Carolina the 11th Congressional District GOP Primary Chuck Edwards 37 percent to Madison Cawthorn's 29 percent 21 percent of the vote counted.



Here in Pennsylvania I see all mail-in votes in the official Department of State count for US Senate and surprise surprise David McCormick getting a big chunk of those Dr. Oz in second place and Kathy Barnette third.    They are all mail-in votes there in the GOP US Senate Primary.


John Fetterman with 52 percent of those mail-in votes on the Democrat side of the US Senate Primary.



These mail in votes for Governor on Republican side give Bill McSwain former federal prosecutor unendorsed by President Trump 29 percent of the vote.     Melissa Hart at 18 percent, Lou Barletta at 14 percent Dave White 13 percent and Doug Mastriano at 12 percent.



Mail-in is the fraudsters friend IMHO.


                                      (825 PM EASTERN US TIME)




In the Republican Primary in the 11th Congressional District in North Carolina Chuck Edwards leading Madison Cawthorn 38-28 percent with 16 percent of the vote counted.


In North Carolina Congressman Ted Budd the winner of the US Senate Primary endorsed for the GOP nod by President Trump.


Early vote count showing Budd leading 57 to 26 percent.



Cheri Beasley the Democrat winner she's got 84 percent of the vote in the early count.


Two percent of the vote in Kentucky's 4th District GOP Primary incumbent Thomas Massie 67 percent of the vote Claire Wirth at 23 percent.


In Kentucky's 5th Congressional District incumbent Republican Hal Rogers with 81 percent of the vote as the first returns come in one of the five incumbent House members endorsed by President Trump.



                                                (645 PM EASTERN US TIME)



In the 4th Congressional District of Kentucky incumbent Libertarian Republican Thomas Massie is way ahead with the early numbers.     He has 64 percent with his leading opponent Claire Wirth at 26 percent.




In Kentucky the 3rd Congressional District a five-way Republican race in the Democrat dominated district that is Louisville and vicinity.



The early results 7 percent in 31.73 for the real estate-stock broker candidate Rhonda Palazzo and 31.68 percent for Stuart Ray who calls him a conservative businessman and political outsider.


While President Trump endorsed five incumbent Republicans for Congress he made no endorsement in this race.


For the Democrats Morgan McGarvey leading Attica Scott 2-1 in that contest.



In Kentucky right now polls are closed results are coming down Rand Paul has some token opposition he has 84 percent of the vote with 1 percent counted in the GOP Primary.


Democrat Charles Booker with 85 percent in his primary 2 percent of the vote counted Booker lost in the 2020 US Senate primary and he was a State House member for one term.


Booker looks set to face Rand Paul this fall.





                                                         (615 PM EASTERN US TIME)




Late this afternoon we learned more news about the health situation involving the expected winner of the Democratic Primary for US Senate here in Pennsylvania.

Well here we are talking primary elections in five US states tonight a lot of focus on Republican contests and endorsements by President Trump.


And President Trump is important here in Pennsylvania whether he endorsed the winner of the US Senate race or not.


If Dr. Mehmet Oz is the winner Trump can take a victory lap with that.


But if Kathy Barnette wins her victory will be symbol of  a rising tide of passionate political activism that President Trump has unleashed.


Across the country and not just in Pennsylvania, certainly in Idaho tonight Constitutional Conservative Libertarian candidates etc. etc. on the ballot.


People who care about Election Integrity, Medical Freedom and other matters like Critical Race Theory and the impact of Transgenderism on youth sports.


If one wants to talk about the notion
