Democrat mounts campaign for GOP write-in votes!!

http://www.post-gazette.com/news/politics-local/2018/05/09/Dom-Costa-pittsburg-pa-house-campaign-GOP-write-in-votes-sara-innamorato/stories/201805090257

Locked in a fight for his own party’s nomination, Democratic state Rep. Dom Costa is seeking the Republican nod, too.

A Costa campaign mailer reviewed Wednesday night by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette urges GOP voters in the 21st House District to write in the former Pittsburgh police chief when they turn out for primary elections Tuesday.

Securing the Republican nomination would assure Mr. Costa, of Stanton Heights, a place on the November general election ballot, even if he loses the Democratic nomination to rival Sara Innamorato of Upper Lawrenceville. Her campaign shared an image of the Costa mailer with the Post-Gazette.

No Republicans have announced bids for the House seat.
