We’ll be blunt – State Senator Doug Mastriano’s nomination as the GOP’s candidate for Pennsylvania governor is dangerous. He:
- Was at the Capitol on January 6th
- Attempted to overturn Biden’s victory in Pennsylvania
- Echoed QAnon talking points
If you thought this makes him an extremist, you’d be right — but he’s certainly not an outlier.
More than 600 GOP legislators just like Doug Mastriano played a role in the deadly Jan 6th insurrection — spreading Trump’s Big Lie through echoing baseless claims about election fraud in 2020. 21 sitting Republican lawmakers traveled to DC that day, marching alongside Confederate flags, nooses, and seditionists who would later vandalize the Capitol and attack police officers.
These state legislators have the power to make decisions impacting how and when elections are held, and even who can vote in them. So it’s clear: We can’t give individuals that denied the results of the 2020 election any authority over our electoral processes, or it could have devastating consequences for our democracy.
We’re working around the clock to give Democrats the resources they need to defeat insurrectionist candidates and their enablers this November – but we need your support to win. Will you chip in $7, $25 or whatever you can afford today to our Stop the Insurrectionists Fund to help state Democrats stand up against insurrectionist state legislative candidates this November?
