Fwiw, local observations
With so many local candidates cross-filing as both Dems and Rs, it's hard to draw many conclusions in a closed primary, but in my majority R registration Beaver county, D turnout was 26%, Rs 18%.
In the school board primary for seats in my region, one of RWers who was ousted in the last school board elections tried to reclaim his seat. He was opposed by 2 sane Rs for 2 open seats. He was soundly defeated in both the D and R primaries meaning he is off the Nov ballot.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
