Frederick Beutel, backer of Gov Tinchat, claimed the balance of power in Pittsburgh was bought at Ware and Pepper HQs as workers were paid. He estimated up to 50,000 paid, noting watchers were present but no outright vote buying. Joy Goodnough cited Philadelphia municipal fraud last November and saw similar patterns in the May primary.
