All four democratic candidates in PA's Gubernatorial
Democratic Primary Election

This article is very confusing for a Democrat trying to make a decision regarding who to vote for in the upcoming Democratic Gubernatorial elections in Pennsylvania.

The topics touched upon in this article are: abortion rights, health care, education, minimum wage, public pensions, natural gas policy, gay rights, gun rights, taxes, marijuana, and the death penalty.

One would think that this article would clear things up that are in the air regarding the views of the four Democratic candidates; however, this article may just make the decision even more difficult and confusing.

Most (10 of 11) of the descriptions of the views on a certain topics start with the phrase "All four candidates." If a website talks about specific topics and how all four candidates support the same strategy of dealing with those topics, how can a Democrat possibly choose just one? No differences are really made that way.

To this author, the article seems extremely ineffective - and if I had to make a decision regarding who to choose, this article would not help me.

It almost appears as though the writer supports all four candidates running for the position of the Democratic nominee for the upcoming PA Gubernatorial election in the Fall.

All-in-all, this article would make me feel confused to be a Democrat.
