Primary Election Day is in the books for Pennsylvania.
The commonwealth is expected to play a major role this November in the fight for control of Congress, as well as Democratic efforts to block the last two years of President Donald Trump’s agenda.
Here’s a look at how things unfolded, and the path ahead:
- Pa.’s 3rd District in Philly: Progressive Chris Rabb is on track to replace Dwight Evans in Congress after besting a crowded field of Democratic primary contenders.
- High-stakes midterms: Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro and Republican Stacy Garrity will face each other in November after winning their uncontested primaries.
- Ballot questions approved: Philadelphia voters OK’d two ballot measures: one that will create a city-run retirement savings program and one that will codify an office that monitors youth services.
