The2022 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 2022, to elect thegovernor andlieutenant governor of Pennsylvania .Democratic state Attorney GeneralJosh Shapiro defeatedRepublican state SenatorDoug Mastriano to win his first term in office. Shapiro succeeded Democratic incumbentTom Wolf , who was term limited.
In the primaries on May 17, 2022, Shapiro was unopposed for the Democratic nomination. Mastriano, who was endorsed byDonald Trump (between presidencies), won the Republican nomination with 44% of the vote over former congressmanLou Barletta and former U.S. attorneyWilliam McSwain . Although the election was expected to be competitive due to Pennsylvania's reputation as aswing state , Mastriano had trouble fundraising, made few media appearances, committed multiple gaffes, was accused of antisemitism against Shapiro, and generated controversy from hisfar-right positions.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] [ 4] [ 5] [ 6] Mastriano's struggles helped Shapiro take a strong polling lead that continued up to the election.
Shapiro defeated Mastriano by almost 15 points, the largest margin for a non-incumbent candidate for Pennsylvania governor since1946 , and earned the most votes of a Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate at just over three million.[ 7] [ 8] His large margin of victory was credited withhelping down-ballot Democrats inconcurrent elections . The victory also marked the first time since1844 that the Democratic Party won three consecutive gubernatorial elections in Pennsylvania, and the first since1950 that any party had done so.[citation needed ] According toRon Brownstein ofCNN in 2023, Shapiro won independent voters by 31 percentage points, which contributed to Mastriano's defeat.[ 9] [ 10]
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro ran unopposed and was described as the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee byThe Philadelphia Inquirer and thePennsylvania Capital-Star early in the campaign, with theCapital-Star reporting that efforts to recruit aprimary challenger to the left of Shapiro had failed.[ 11] [ 12]

In the Republican primary, leading candidates included former congressmanLou Barletta ,Montgomery County commissioner Joe Gale, political strategistCharlie Gerow , former U.S. AttorneyWilliam McSwain , state SenatorDoug Mastriano , and former Delaware County councilmember Dave White.
Several key issues, such asschool choice ,natural gas exploration in PA , and tax reform, were early themes in thePennsylvania GOP debates before the primary election,[ 77] while voting laws in the Commonwealth were a later topic of debate.[ 78]
Due to his support for overturning the results of the2020 presidential election and his role in theJanuary 6 U.S. Capitol attack , many Republicans expressed concern about Mastriano's ability to win the general election. As a result, the party encouraged other candidates to drop out to allow for an alternative to Mastriano to gain traction.[ 79]
On May 12, president pro tempore of thePennsylvania Senate Jake Corman dropped out and endorsed Barletta.[ 80] On May 14, former presidentDonald Trump endorsed Mastriano.[ 81] [ 82] On May 12,The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that former U.S. RepresentativeMelissa Hart would also drop out and endorse Barletta.[ 83] Mastriano won the primary with almost 44% of the vote, defeating his nearest competitor, Barletta, by over 23 points.
The New York Times reported in mid-June that Mastriano had been aided in the primary by the Pennsylvania Democratic Party and Shapiro's campaign with an ad equating him to Trump. Shapiro defended the move, saying the ad demonstrated the contrast between him and Mastriano as part of the general election campaign. TheTimes saw it as part of a nationwide strategy to gain easier opponents in November.[ 84]

On criminal justice issues, Shapiro promised to sign a bill abolishing the death penalty having previously supported it, but also faced criticism from some left-wing voters for adopting a "tough on crime" image. In addition, he has openly feuded withPhiladelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner .[ 198]
State Senator Doug Mastriano positioned himself as a staunch ally of former president Donald Trump, promotingconspiracy theories about the 2020 election , defense ofConfederate monuments ,[ 199] arming school teachers with firearms,[ 200] and disobeying COVID-19 safety protocols.[ 201] Mastriano also drew accusations ofantisemitism for using anti-semitic dogwhistles against Shapiro.[ 6] One of Mastriano's most vocal supporters wasAndrew Torba , the CEO of far-right social media websiteGab , a website on which the perpetrator of theTree of Life Synagogue shooting posted before committing the massacre. Torba donated $500 to the Mastriano campaign, and Mastriano himself told the Gab founder in an interview, "Thank God for what you've done."[ 202]
No debate was held during the general election, as Shapiro and Mastriano were unable to come to an agreement on how to debate.[ 203] In addition, Mastriano did not release his first general election ads until October, while the more well-funded Shapiro had already spent $18.6 million in television broadcasting by that time.[ 204] These factors, combined with Mastriano's refusal to talk to major media outlets and decision to ban journalists from campaign rallies, severely limited his voter outreach.[ 205]

By congressional district [ edit ] Shapiro won 11 of 17 congressional districts, including two that elected Republicans.[ 391]
Josh Shapiro defeated Doug Mastriano by 14.8%. While this marked a 2.73% Republican swing from 2018, it was still 13.18% larger thanJoe Biden 's win in thepresidential race in Pennsylvania two years earlier in 2020, and 9.86% larger than Shapiro'sreelection for Attorney General that same year. All counties in the Keystone State voted the exact same way they did in 2018, with Shapiro doing best in heavily populatedSoutheastern Pennsylvania , which is made up ofPhiladelphia and its suburbs,Berks County (Reading ), theLehigh Valley (Allentown ,Bethlehem , andEaston ), theWyoming Valley (Scranton ,Wilkes-Barre , andHazleton ), theSusquehanna Valley (Harrisburg andCarlisle ),Erie County in the northwest corner, and finally,Greater Pittsburgh in the southwest.
Doug Mastriano, meanwhile, piled up large margins in Pennsylvania's rural counties, but also won some populous places located in the western part of the state, likeButler ,Washington , andWestmoreland counties near Pittsburgh. However, Mastriano significantly underperformed President Donald Trump's margins in the 2020 Presidential election in some of those counties; Westmoreland County, for example, voted for Trump by 28 points in 2020, but only backed Mastriano by 6 points in 2022. A similar leftward shift happened in neighboring Washington County, with Shapiro only losing the county by 2 points despite Joe Biden losing the county by over 20 points 2 years earlier. Mastriano also carriedLancaster , including the counties contained either fully or partially withinhis State Senate district , namelyAdams ,Franklin andYork . Except for Adams and Franklin counties, Lancaster and York were once again carried by single digits by the Republican gubernatorial candidate just like 2018, as Mastriano's extremist views likely turned off moderate independents and Republicans in these areas.[citation needed ]
Southeastern Pennsylvania , a strong Democratic area during elections, shifted more Democratic. This region, with strongly Democratic Philadelphia, anchored by its suburbs, has become a Democratic stronghold in elections, winning all Delaware Valley counties. Southeastern Pennsylvania piled up large margins in its suburbs. Its electorate is highly educated, affluent, and diverse. In addition to the region's strong Democratic tilt, abortion rights were a significant campaign issue among voters. According to CNN polling data,[ 392] 62% of Pennsylvania voters believed abortion should be legal, and those voters broke for Shapiro by a landslide margin of 81%–18%. College-educated voters, who made up 41% of the electorate, also voted heavily for Shapiro by a 64%–35% margin. Shapiro won 92% of Black voters, 72% of Latino voters, and 50% of White voters. According toRon Brownstein ofCNN in 2023, Shapiro won independent voters by double-digit margins, which contributed to Mastriano's defeat.[ 9]
Voter demographic data for 2022 was collected byCNN . The voter survey is based onexit polls completed by 2,657 voters in person as well as by phone.[ 392]
