2018 Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott Wagner today attended the Pennsylvania Republican State Committee Central Caucus to present to conservative leaders his vision to clean up Harrisburg. After candidates spoke and answered questions, members of the Central Caucus conducted an endorsement straw poll, which Wagner won with 63 percent of the vote. Campaign Manager Jason High released the following statement following Wagner’s victory:
“Scott was endorsed today by an overwhelming number of Central Caucus members because they know he is the only conservative outsider in this race that can change the status quo in Harrisburg.”
“His sizable victory should signal to the entire Commonwealth that Scott is the prohibitive favorite to win the Republican nomination.”
“In the coming caucuses, Scott will continue to unify Republicans across Pennsylvania behind his candidacy to ensure that he has the best chance of defeating Governor Wolf and secure down ballot wins for the Party in November.” In addition to winning the Central Caucus, Wagner took the North Central and Northeast straw polls.
