The Strange Saga of Otto Voit

He went out to the waiting members of the press and finally announced that he voted for Donald Trump.
The incumbent Senator had agonized over this decision and polls had him down coming into the final stretch.
On the other hand, Otto Voit practically lept into Donald Trump’s arms.
When the GOP presidential nominee came to the Keystone State, Voit was there to greet him and pump up his crowds. He even led chants of “Lock Her Up!”.
So on the morning of November 9th, after Trump had turned the commonwealth red, it was revealed that…Pat Toomey won and Otto Voit lost.
Toomey actually received 334,680 more votes than Voit. In fact, the GOP nominee for State Treasurer got the fewest votes of any statewide candidate on Tuesday.
While we’re still figuring out the Trump coalition, one surprising revelation appears to be that he didn’t have coattails. Many Pennsylvanians cast Trump-Toomey-Shapiro-Torsella ballots.
How to explain that? We’ll just have to ask.
