PA-HD160: What voters need to know about Pa. state Rep. Craig Williams and Democratic challenger Elizabeth Moro

While most of the state’s legislative races are effectively decided during the primary, several toss up races will likely determine the balance of power in the state House.

The 160th District, which spans parts of Chester and Delaware counties, is seen by both parties as a competitive race. Incumbent Republican state Rep. Craig Williams is facing off against Democratic challenger Elizabeth Moro.....

Moro, 51, is a small business owner and real estate broker. She was born and raised in Port Huron, Michigan. As one of 12 children, she said it was a necessity to be unique and stand out in a big family. Her father was a radiator repairman and a Korean War veteran. He would come home each day from work and watch the news, which is and that’s how Moro said she got interested in politics.

She graduated from Western Michigan University in 1995 with a bachelor’s degree in political science, public policy and women’s studies. She spent five years as a program coordinator at the Fetzer Institute.

“For most of my life, I always tried to find a way to serve but did not always feel like that was an appealing place because it can be nasty and I’m not that kind of person,” Moro said. “But in 2017, after the 2016 election, we marched in Washington and I really felt the call to run for U.S. Congress.”
