HARRISBURG, PA — It has been a busy year for state officials. From a pandemic to an election that commanded national attention for days, you may now be more familiar with Pennsylvania's leaders than ever before.

You may remember the many appearances by Attorney General Josh Shapiro on national television news programs (some more entertaining than others) as he defended the integrity of the vote in Pennsylvania.

Several decisions made by Gov. Tom Wolf did not come without ample criticism, particularly those dealing with mitigation measures and shut down orders due to the pandemic. And Lt. Gov. John Fetterman became a Twitter sensation for his relentless trolling following the GOP's claims of voter fraud.
