Not a pleasant experience; wife, kid and I stood in line +2 hours to vote. Proud most folks showed up despite the wait (and the outcome). County-wide, Trump did better than his previous 2 elections. Same story across most of PA. I think, in the end, pocket book issues were a major factor and voters took it out at the top of the ticket (for the most part). I'm going to assume most of the state representatives were reelected.
A quick look at Reading confirmed what I thought/expected. No support from that area, which is a Democratic stronghold. Outside the City, voter turnout averaged 70-80+%, while most precincts in Reading had 40-50% turnout. This lack of participation in Reading has been going on for decades.
