PA-10: Pennsylvania Republican fights to keep seat in tense House battle

Democrats are increasingly optimistic about ousting Rep. Scott Perry (R) in Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District as the general election reaches a fever pitch in the Keystone State.

The party’s strategists point to higher turnout during a presidential cycle, along with changing demographics in the district. The district’s Democratic candidate Janelle Stelson is also seen as a key asset, given her high name ID from covering the district as a former news anchor.

But ousting Perry, who has represented the district since 2019, will be an uphill climb, as the former Freedom Caucus Chair has a history of overcoming competitive races in cycles that have been difficult for Republicans nationally.

Democrats say the race is emblematic of the suburban shifts seen in the great Philadelphia and Pittsburgh areas.
