But I hate even more to see crooked Katy McGinty win the senate seat.
Pennsylvania already has one democratic senator who ain't worth the powder it'd take to blow him to hell.
But to be honest, Toomey is only slightly better. He was among the first to go along with no fly/no buy after the Orlando shooting. IIRC, I believe the NRA gives him a "C" rating.
He has steadfastly refused to endorse Donald, in spite of the fact that Trump signs litter almost every private yard in PA! He was even noncommittal at tonight's debate when asked if he would vote for Trump.
This guy, along with the Bush clan, is one of the reasons Obama has had no opposition for 7 years, and why American sovereignty is circling the drain.
If someone can give me a good reason, other than Ross Perot, I'll pull the lever, but I'll be pissed doing it.

Having grown up and spent my first 35 years in PA I was amazed by Toomey's voting record and that he is considered a republican. Things have really changed the past 25 years since I left.

Reading a couple of his anti-gun speeches he deserves a D- at best! He is one of the "safe" gun control weasels that try to back door anti-gun legislation by pretending he is for gun safety..

I know what you mean, but if Trump can pull this off he's going to need a Republican US Senate to get his SCOTUS picks through. I'm going to hold my nose and vote for Toomey.

I see there's an Edward Clifford running against Toomey? What is his story?

One of the main reasons he won the senate seat is the A rating he carried over from the US House of Representatives. Typical politician, change his positions because he thinks it will garner more votes come Election Day. Sad thing about the whole situation is the incumbent has the full backing of the estlablishment which makes a challenge nearly impossible and the other option is worse. We need a viable third party, bad.

I hated voting for Rubio yesterday, too, but there was no alternative.

Toomey is a bitter choice. Corrupt RINO. Hard to say he is better than a dem. I will hold my nose and vote.
Hopefully these types of choices will change in the future.
Go Trump with term limits, and an open season on RINOs.

Hold your nose and vote for Toomey; McGinty is simply part of the Philadelphia democratic machine, nothing more. She tried desperately to stonewall the natural gas industry when she was Ed Rendell's sec'y of DEP. She is a poisonous snake, Toomey simply a snake.

McGinty is evil. If she wins, she's a mini me Hitlery. Man up and vote for Toomey.
