Josh Shapiro, Phil Murphy, and other Democratic governors will rally for Kamala Harris in North Philly on Sunday

Democratic governors from across the country will hold a rally for Vice President Kamala Harris Sunday afternoon in North Philly.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro will be joined by New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, and Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey, according to the Harris campaign, which did not disclose the location of the event Friday.

They originally had said it was going to be at the Philadelphia Building & Construction Trades Council office in Northeast Philadelphia, but later changed the location.

The rally comes as Harris works to regain ground Democrats have lost among working-class voters in recent years. To win Pennsylvania, Harris will need to run up her margins in deep-blue Philadelphia. But an Inquirer analysis of 2020 and 2016 election results found that Democrats have bled votes in the parts of the city where education levels are lowest, and poverty rates were highest.

I have ranted and raved against the Inquirer "analysis" where those asses STILL haven't corrected their bogus article about the 2016/2020 election comparison. I even added a comment to the comment section of the article back then and not long after, they were obviously getting a lot of raucous feedback, and closed down comments to ALL articles after that (and haven't brought the ability back either).

These reporters need to be fired. They have created a bogus "narrative" that is now proliferating 4 years later.

Philly was supposed to turn out huge for Biden. It didn’t. What happened?

They pulled a tally from 11/15/20 of ~584,000 that still had tens of thousands of votes outstanding and went with their bogus headline.



THE ACTUALS (2 days later)



The actual 2020 tally SURPASSED the historic 2008 Obama vote here.

But did the lazy asses bother to follow-up? Of course not.

They have really pissed me off and sorry to rant about it in your thread.
