Activist Comments During Public Bucks County Meeting
The Pennsylvania Senate race has officially concluded with Democratic Senator Bob Casey conceding to Republican Dave McCormick after a protracted two-week battle. McCormick’s victory, cementing him as Senator-elect, marks a seismic political shift in a state that has been fiercely contested in recent elections. However, the road to this result was anything but smooth, marred by Democratic defiance of election laws and last-minute legal battles that showcased the raw tension gripping the Keystone State.
One of the most contentious moments of the election occurred in Bucks County, where Democratic officials openly flouted election laws. Video evidence captured Bucks County’s Democratic commissioners discussing their plan to count illegal ballots, prompting swift action from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which struck down the scheme. This brazen attempt to manipulate the process not only underscored the stakes of the race but also raised questions about election integrity in a county critical to the state’s outcome.

For Republicans, Bucks County proved pivotal. While McCormick didn’t outright win the county, he held Casey to a razor-thin margin of 49/48, a significant achievement in a historically Democratic stronghold. President-elect Donald Trump’s victory in Bucks—the first for a Republican since George H.W. Bush—further highlighted the county’s changing political landscape.
Much of the Republican success in Pennsylvania can be attributed to the tireless efforts of conservative activist Scott Presler. Moving to the state ahead of the 2024 cycle, Presler spearheaded voter registration drives that dramatically reduced the Democrats’ voter advantage by hundreds of thousands. His grassroots approach didn’t just bolster GOP numbers; it energized the Republican base and reinforced confidence in the party’s ability to compete in battleground states.

Presler also played a key role during the early voting controversy in Bucks County, where some voters were turned away due to administrative errors. The Trump campaign quickly filed a lawsuit, and a judge sided with the Republicans, extending the early voting period. Presler ensured that every eligible voter had their voice heard, particularly in areas where Democrats had tried to bend the rules.
Presler hasn’t forgotten the attempted shenanigans in Bucks County. Following the election, he issued a stark warning to the Democratic commissioners involved, suggesting they consider resigning before facing a direct challenge in the next election. His message was clear: election integrity isn’t negotiable, and those who undermine it will be held accountable.
SCOTT PRESLER: “We are not stopping for a second. I am more emboldened than ever and my goal is to ‘Florida’ Pennsylvania within the next few years.”
He’s not letting up.

McCormick’s narrow victory over Casey, along with the GOP’s resurgence in places like Bucks County, signals a shifting political tide in Pennsylvania. The state has long been a bellwether for national politics, and its Senate seat was a crucial win for Republicans as they work to solidify their Senate majority.
For Democrats, the loss is a sobering reminder that their grip on traditionally blue states is weakening, especially as Republicans invest in grassroots operations and voter outreach. The GOP’s success in Pennsylvania may serve as a model for future campaigns, proving that relentless organization and a commitment to election integrity can tip the balance in even the tightest races.
