Libertarians Participated in Both Pennsylvania State Legislative Elections of March 25, 2025

This is old news, not previously mentioned here. On March 25, Pennsylvania held two special legislative elections. Libertarians were on the ballot in both of them.

In the State Senate election in the 36th district, in Lancaster County, the results were: Democratic 50.04%; Republican 49.07%; Libertarian .89%. This seat had been considered safe for the Republicans for so long, that in 2022, the last time it was up, the Republican nominee had been the only name on the ballot.

The other district, the State House, 36th district, had these results: Democratic 63.47%; Republican 34.98%; Libertarian 1.55%. In 2024 in this district, the only candidate had been the Democrat. The district is in Allegheny County.

  3. Well I’m Donald Trump, the one they’re talking about, if you talk crap about me you’ll get punched in the mouth.

    If you disrespect me, forget about it, forget it. Best case for you is you’ll survive to regret it.

  4. @AZ,

    I thought you believed legislators and other elected officials were individuals and not an agent of some political organization.

    But I didn’t ask you who should be appointed, but why they should. You don’t believe that political office should be inherited, do you?

    (e.g. the Dingell’s).

  5. @AZ,

    The solution is continuous elections. Each month a resident voter would acquire a vote, up to a total of 60 (five years), which they could exercise whenever they wanted to. If they were planning to move, they could go use any that they were about to lose.

    If an office holder left office through retirement or death, then any accumulated unused votes would cancelled, but new votes (up to 60) would be issued to the current residents of the district based on how long they had lived there. Voters would be encouraged to go vote since there would be a quorum requirement.

  6. That sounds as complicated and unworkable as the Jones crank schemes which evolved into the AZ Spambot programmed subroutines.

    Make government, politics, and elections simpler, not more complicated. Always Simplify. That is the way.
