Pennsylvania-based radio show host John Fredericks said the Keystone State’s politics are “hanging in the balance” leading up to the upcoming November 5 general election.
Fredericks, who founded and owns the John Fredericks Media Network, said “all eyes are on Pennsylvania” this upcoming election, noting how various political races ranging from the state level to the federal level will determine how the state is represented and governed moving forward.
“You’ve got a Senate campaign. You’ve got a couple of House seats that you could pick up. You’ve got a state treasurer’s race. That’s very competitive. And also hanging in the balance of Pennsylvania…is the state Senate and House. The Republicans control the state Senate by a couple of votes. They look pretty good. The map favors them. They should be okay in the Senate, barring a disaster, but when you go to the House, they’re down by two. They need a two seat pick up, and we have some representatives that are being targeted, that are vulnerable,” Fredericks explained on Wednesday’s edition of The Michael Patrick Leahy Show.
Fredericks went on to stress the importance of voter turnout for the general election, noting how he believes the Left will “cheat” with dropbox tactics and by allowing illegal aliens to vote.
“It’s all about turnout…It’s all or nothing,” Fredericks said. “Everything is hanging in the balance.”
“It’s going to be very close, and they’re going to cheat. We’ve got things in place, but our goal is to cut the cheating down where it’s negligible. They’re going to cheat. Illegals are going to vote. It’s going to be dropboxes, mail-in ballots coming in from God knows where. That is going to happen, but not to the extent that it happened in 2020 and we cut it down in 2022 to a certain extent, but we got to vote early folks…You can’t give the Democrats 50 days to vote and we get 10 hours and think we’re going to win. You just can’t win in that scenario. We’ve got to vote early, we’ve got to vote by mail, and we’ve got to get out early,” Fredericks added.
Fredericks, who called into Wednesday’s show from outside the New Holland Arena in Harrisburg where former President Donald Trump was set to hold a rally later in the day, also pointed out Pennsylvania’s impactful contribution in deciding the presidency, saying, “If [Trump] wins Pennsylvania, he’s president.”
