This was a very low turnout primary election, that's probably the only reason all ballot measures passed. Many people didn't even know there was an election (not much media coverage), and of those who did know, a significant number of them didn't feel motivated enough to vote. I haven't seen a final number yet, but anticipated turnout was around 25% or less.
Governor Wolf already announced a rollback of all restrictions at the end of the month (except masking, which hinges on vaccination). This was seen as a sudden move given how strict he has been, but was likely done to make it look like it was his own decision, rather than allowing his emergency powers to be rescinded under this new amendment.
Holy shit, I didn't know there were that many people with a fucking brain left in that shithole of a state.
EDIT to add: They still left that Jim Bakker looking faggot still in power, though. So...I guess, moderate victory? Yay?
If the presidential election was as flimsy in PA as it seems, what makes you think it's the only one?
