Republicans are trying to pull Pat Dugan back into the District Attorney race

Will Pat Dugan, who lost to Larry Krasner in the Democratic primary for district attorney, actively run as a Republican in the November general election?

It looks like the local GOP would really like him to.

An online poll texted to some Philadelphia residents on Wednesday asks the recipients’ opinions of Dugan, Krasner, Donald Trump, and an incorrectly spelled “Charelle Parker.” It also asks a couple pointed questions about the DA race.

Would the recipient vote for “Pat Dugan, a Democrat running on the Republican ticket; or Larry Krasner, the Democrat?”

Krasner is going to win no matter who the Pukes put up. Dugan would only ruin his reputation trying this. Let’s see if he actually has any integrity.
