Special Election Today
Harrisburg – A special election in Bucks County will determine whether control of the PA House of Representatives belongs to the Democratic Party or remains in a deadlock between Democrats and Republicans. The PA House has 203 seats for representatives and was deadlocked in a tie with 101 Democrats and Republicans each after Democratic Rep John Galloway was elected to a Judgeship; today’s election will fill his seat.  On Friday, Republican Joe Adams vacated his House seat for family medical reasons, meaning there will still be a vacancy in the PA House after this contest.
