Shapiro opens campaign office in Scranton, Allentown

Democratic candidate for governor Josh Shapiro campaigned in Lackawanna, Luzerne, and Lehigh Counties on Saturday.

SCRANTON, Pa. — Shapiro, who currently serves as Pennsylvania's Attorney General, made stops in Scranton and Allentown to celebrate the opening of campaign offices for Pennsylvania's Democratic party.

"Folks are worried about safety. They're worried about their kids' mental health. They're worried about being able to create jobs and grow the economy in their communities. They're worried that these rights that we relied on for so long just feel like they're being pulled away from us. I want you to know I understand that worry, I shoulder that. And I'm running for governor not just to try and win an election but to try to meet this mold," said Shapiro.

Shapiro faces Republican Doug Mastriano in November's race for governor.
