Removed "Both the Democrats and Republicans have placed voting rights at the center of their gubernatorial campaigns." - this was unsourced and is quite subjective, especially before any Dem-Rep debates take place. Most discussion at GOP only debates has been about school choice and energy exploration.
Added more issues to the top of the article (school choice, energy exploration and tax reform).

The 2022 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election will take place on November 8, 2022, to elect the governor of Pennsylvania and lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania. Incumbent Democratic Governor Tom Wolf is term-limited and cannot seek re-election to a third consecutive term. Several key issues, such as school choice, natural gas exploration in PA, and tax reform have been early themes in PA GOP debates before the primary election. [1] Furthermore, voting laws in the Commonwealth are likely to be another election theme.[2]

Democratic Primary

Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro reported raising $13.4 million in 2021 by labor unions and big checks in a state that puts no limits on individual contributions[3]. Republicans often focused their fraud claims on Philadelphia, the backbone of both the Black and Democratic votes in the state. Should this be an issue during the 2022 Pennsylvania gubernatorial race, how will the most challenging aspect of working in a diverse working environment effect Pastor Tega Swann creating change as the first black woman governor of Pennsylvania...‽
