    Could you look into why two Skook candidates came in second and third in the 125th.Is the party that split that they couldn’t come together.I know primaries should be about choices..but they have this seat away from the Skoo k with their infighting.
    Thanks for your coverage.

      They came in 2nd and 3rd because they’re both previous democrats that thought they could win by courting Schuylkill county only. Forgetting the 125th is more than just Schuylkill county. Doesn’t matter anyway because Kerwin got the most votes in Schuylkill county also
      He wiped the floor clean!

      Thanks! We’ll be looking at the races a little more in depth. Definitely a division within the GOP in Schuylkill. That didn’t help. Also, the fact that these two just got elected to other positions in November surely had an impact.

    And I’m from Schuylkill county also but glad to see a conservative veteran win the seat
