Welcome to the latest edition of Voice of Reason where we’ll recap exclusive news and data featured in our most recent podcast.

The segment focused on how women are reshaping the Pennsylvania politics landscape. PA Treasurer Stacy Garrity and her Democratic challenger Erin McClelland joined us to share their views and insights you want to know.

Treasurer of the Commonwealth Stacy Garrity explained that the state's investment in Israeli bonds after the October 7th attack is not only an act of solidarity, but also of fiscal strategy.

Numbers You Need to Know
Elections
* In the months after Roe v. Wade was overturned, 52% of new voters were women, while only 46% were men. Normally, the split is about equal. [L2 Data ([link removed]) ]

Voter Sentiment
* 16% of Pennsylvanians surveyed are "less likely" to support Trump following his felony conviction. 47% would "never support," and 36% would "support regardless." [L2 Data ([link removed]) ]

Policy
* Support for school funding, teachers' unions, and common core education standards is generally similar across party lines. Socioeconomic status and parenthood make the most difference in attitudes on these issues, not party. [L2 Data ([link removed]) ]
