'It's official: I'm running for Lieutenant Governor

Last edited Wed Nov 15, 2017, 12:28 AM - Edit history (1)

Generations ahead of us will ask what we did at this moment to build back up our communities, and close the massive inequality gap that is leaving so many people behind. That's why I'm running for Lieutenant Governor.

With your help, we don't have to accept the status quo. We can build back up a Pennsylvania that works for everyone.'

Seems PA could use some real, serious, down to earth leadership.

he did have the incident with he and his wife verbally abusing the staff at the ltgov's mansion. Plus he and Wolf reportedly are barely on speaking terms.

I'm guessing that Fetterman is thinking long-term and eyeing a run for governor in 2022? He is very popular in western PA and that position would give him state-wide recognition.
