The Reason We Lost This Morning

The Reason We Lost This Morning

I’m Doug Mastriano: This is why I want Pennsylvania’s vote in the midterm election to be counted!

I’m Doug Mastriano:

I’m Doug Mastriano: I’m the candidate for Pennsylvania’s 11th District, the seat that’s being vacated by Republican Rep. Tim Murphy. It’s a blue-collar seat that’s been held by Democrats since the 19th century.

I’m Doug Mastriano: And I want to tell you why I think what happened this morning shouldn’t have happened.

I’m Doug Mastriano: Because the reason that we lost — this was the biggest race in Pennsylvania history.

I’m Doug Mastriano: And we lost by so much that I am convinced it was because of this one man alone. And that man is Tim Murphy.

I’m Doug Mastriano: He was the only Republican to vote for the bill to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. He was one of the only Republicans to say publicly, “We’ll keep it working” under Obamacare. He voted to raise the debt limit. He voted to protect and expand Planned Parenthood. He voted to fund Planned Parenthood and other groups that had received billions in Federal grants during President Obama’s terms. He voted to defund Planned Parenthood funding in this year’s Health and Human Services funding bill. He voted to defund funding for the controversial global warming deniers in the House. And he voted to kill and keep off the books funding for Planned Parenthood.

I’m Doug Mastriano:

I’m Doug Mastriano: He voted to take abortion funding off the books. I think that’s the only thing he could have done that could have taken even the worst case scenario from happening. But he let these women down and that was his biggest mistake.

I’m Doug Mastriano:
