Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania's Democratic nominee for governor, has smashed the state’s 2-decade-old campaign spending record as he competes against Republican Doug Mastriano, who was on track to spend less than a tenth as much.

The race between Shapiro and Mastriano may test how powerful that campaign spending is in one of the nation’s highest-profile races for governor. One candidate has spent more money than any other gubernatorial nominee ever in Pennsylvania, and the other has spent less than any other in at least the past two decades.

"There’s a lot of well-meaning people out there that have never run for office or a statewide campaign that have all this great advice: ‘You need run more TV ads,’" Mastriano told a conservative radio show host on Friday. "OK, that’s a great idea, how about if you donate and help us do that?" Mastriano, in turn, has reported spending of less than $3 million. Shapiro reported having $11 million still in the bank; Mastriano reported $2.6 million.

Mastriano also was outside the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection and was photographed taking video of demonstrators attacking police before he supposedly walked away. With just three weeks until Election Day, prospects for national GOP support for Mastriano are fading.

If you have to spend that much then you’re feeling the pressure. If you vote Dem after seeing this explosion of crime and inflation than you’re a dope

Because she he did not do his job as Attorney General, he has to buy votes.

Typical Democrat

We need josh

Pretty sad because they’re neck and neck

Being installed again.

And done nothing as AG to stop crime

Shapiro was bought

There should be limits on spending. Shapiro hasn’t done anything. I guess you just buy elections by trashing the other guy

Soros paying for this?

Vote dougmastriano !!!

Cuck

Vote Libertarian!! They BOTH suck!

Oh I know... Its nonstop smear campaign against the other guy. At this point I KNOW NOTHING about what Shapiro is promising or passionate about other than pro choice. As all the dems are hoping will be enough for a win.

44 million spent for a 200,000 dollar job seems legit.

This is how it works — unions and lobby groups with easy access to big money grease up the wheels for the person they want. The person who will do them favors later.

3 cops shot in Philly the other day, where was Josh
