It’s one of those days at the Capitol where it’s hard to find a place to park and even more challenging to make way through the crowd

I just spotted Kylie Kelce — host of the popular “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, wife of former Eagle’s center Jason Kelce, and PA native — exit @GovernorShapiro’s office in the state Capitol. Perhaps for a podcast interview? 👀

There are a shocking number of incumbent PA Senators facing a potential primary this year. Dems facing primary challengers: Art Haywood (SD-04), Anthony Williams (SD-08), Lisa Boscola (SD-18), Marty Flynn (SD-22), Wayne Fontana (SD-42). GOPers facing primary challengers: Lisa Baker (SD-20), Pat Stefano (SD-32), Camera Bartolotta (SD-46), Christ Gebhard (SD-48). That is 9 of the 25 incumbents (no retirements on the senate side this year in the Keystone State) facing a challenger this May as it stands.
By my count, there are 30 state legislative incumbents facing a primary this year, per DoS data as of ~7:30 p.m . This could change due to new additions or petition challenges; and how many are serious is a separate q still. But that's the state of play.

🍂Wet leaves, fog and frost are some of fall’s driving hazards. Wet leaves can make the roadway as slippery as ice and obscure traffic lines. More from @PennDOTnews bit.ly/4nI8UQC

Replying to @GovernorShapiro
@GovernorShapiro said today at a @933WMMR event that he's bringing Michigan @GovWhitmer to the Lions-Eagles game w/him Sunday. "She actually said, 'Is it okay if I wear Lion's stuff?' And I'm like, 'No problem. You're on your own in the parking lot. I can't protect you.'"
