Gov. Tom Corbett has signed his 8th execution warrant since taking office in January, but death penalty advocates know it's a waste of time. No death row inmate has been executed in Pennsylvania since 1999.

Governor Corbett Signs Execution Warrant for Convicted Killer

With just four days left as governor, Ed Rendell has asked the Pennsylvania Legislature to take a look at the state's ineffective death penalty law.

Rendell has signed 119 death warrants since 2002, but not a single person has been executed in Pennsylvania during his tenure as governor.

If the Legislature can't fix the law, Rendell suggests eliminating it entirely.

Gov. Ed Rendell signed two more death warrants this week, bringing the number signed during his tenure as governor to 99. And the number of death row inmates executed since Rendell became governor remains at 0.

In fairness, it's not Rendell's fault that nobody has been executed in Pennsylvania for decades. You can thank liberal judges who refuse to uphold the law and allow executions to take place.
