That's disappointing. Looks like Dems took 3 of 4 superior court judges and split the commonwealth court and the ballot question passed.

If only Philadelphians would turn out for these off-year elections Dems would sweep, but not even 200,000 voters bothered to show up.

I knew that he was pretty much a long shot, and up against a well-funded, experienced thuglican judge. But still, I wish he'd have won.

Well, Dems still have a nice edge on the State Supreme Court. BUT, Woodruff would have been the cherry on top.

out in these odd year elections. My red precinct turnout was down 10% from 2015 (41 to31%) and voters here are generally civic-minded about voting. There was a real chance, if Dems had had better turnout, we'd have won every judicial race.
