https://www.politicspa.com/trafalgar-shapiro-leads-mastriano-53-44/113570/The latest Trafalgar Group survey of 1,078 likely voters shows Democratic nominee Josh Shapiro with a 52.8 to 43.5 point advantage over the GOP candidate. It is the first time in the last seven polls that the state senator from Franklin County has seen his deficit below 10 points.
Libertarian candidate Matt Hackenburg pulled in 1.3 percent, while two percent remain undecided in a survey with a margin of error of +/- 2.9 points.
Shapiro, the Attorney General of the Commonwealth, showed strong numbers across the demographic board, including more than 15 percentage point advantages among voters 25-34 (39.2), 35-44 (17.8) and 65+ (16.3). He also held a considerable edge among women (17.9) and a smaller advantage among men (9.3).

(25,554 posts)Mastriano and Oz are going to lose. Pennsylvanians do not elect politicians like them. We have had some real cruddy folk, but theyve been real Pennsylvanians, and I go back to Hugh Scott and Milton Shapp and Bill Scranton. Thornburgh, until he was corrupted by Reagan and Meese was a real Pennsylvanian.
These two assholes are foreigners there
