As Pennsylvania Republicans prepare to choose a nominee for governor Tuesday, some party officials are twisted in knots over the possibility of a primary victory by a candidate many see as too far to the right to win statewide this fall.
The first electoral aftershocks from legislative redistricting earlier this year will be felt Tuesday, when Pennsylvania voters pick primary candidates for Congress, 203 state House seats and 25 Senate districts.
The Pennsylvania primary is on Tuesday and there are major developments in the race for US Senate.
Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, the leading Democrat in the state's high-profile Senate contest, has suffered a stroke but is on his way to a "full recovery," his campaign said on Sunday.
Bans Off Our Bodies rallies were held nationwide to protest the Supreme Court's pending decision to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade case.

The governor wants to use $204 million in federal money to boost the state's property tax and rebate program, which helps low-income seniors stay in their homes.
Doug Mastriano is a prominent peddler of the unsubstantiated claims that widespread fraud marred the 2020 election and that Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf was responsible for thousands of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes.
The 50-50 tie in the Senate could come down to Pennsylvania's open seat.
