Daily News | Is Doug Mastriano running for U.S. Senate next year? He’s making a ‘special announcement’ tonight
Tonight we’ll know for sure if he’s joining the race.
Mastriano , a far-right state senator who lost his 2022 gubernatorial bid by 15 points and 800,000 votes to Democrat Josh Shapiro,he’d announce “crazy good news” about whether he’s entering the primary race for U.S. Senate. He’ll make his official announcement Thursday night on Facebook Live. Republicans in Pennsylvania and nationwide — including former President Donald Trump — have expressed fear that Mastriano could be a drag on the GOP ticket in 2024,“That wasn’t a close race. He was beat pretty badly,” Samuel Chen, a Republican consultant who has worked on statewide campaigns in Pennsylvania, said of Mastriano’s loss to Shapiro. “The odds do not look good that he could win in 2024.
Mastriano was first elected to the state Senate in a 2019 special election, following a 30-year career in the U.S. Army where he rose to the rank of colonel. He first gained popularity outside his state Senate district at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, when former Gov. Tom Wolf ordered many businesses to shut down.
