Whatever happens in November, a candidate like Doug Mastriano winning a gubernatorial primary, especially in a major swing state, is quite obviously a pretty bad sign of the overall state of things.

An important note about Pennsylvania is that unlike AZ, GA, NV, CO and other swing states, the governor appoints the secretary of state. A Mastriano victory would virtually ensure that a conspiracy-minded election denier would oversee Pennsylvania's 2024 elections.

There are, of course, election deniers running for both GOV and SOS in all of those states (I wrote about them here: huffpost.com/entry/secretar). But Mastriano's victory means the Pennsylvania GOV race is a BOGO for election denialism.
