From The Associated Press:
Republican Tom Corbett has defeated Democrat Dan Onorato in the race for Pennsylvania governor.
The 61-year-old Corbett is a career prosecutor who has been the state attorney general since 2005. He ran largely on his office's probe of legislative corruption.
The 49-year-old Onorato has been the elected executive of Allegheny County, where Pittsburgh is, since 2004. He touted his success in streamlining bureaucracy and holding the line on property taxes.
The campaign focused primarily on spending and taxes at a time when the state faces a projected budget shortfall of as much as $5 billion.
