Five days after projections said his opponent won, Republican State Sen. Doug Mastriano has conceded the governor’s race to Democrat Josh Shapiro.
“Difficult to accept as the results are, there is no right course but to concede, which I do, and I look to the challenges ahead,” Mastriano said in a statement. “Josh Shapiro will be our next Governor, and I ask everyone to give him the opportunity to lead and pray that he leads well.”
