Pennsylvania to delay primary election as coronavirus spreads

Pennsylvania lawmakers on Wednesday voted to delay the state’s April 28 primary election by five weeks to June 2 amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The measure passed both houses of the state’s Republican-controlled legislature Wednesday, The Associated Press reported.

The bill will now be sent to Gov. Tom Wolf (D), who is expected the sign it into law. Wolf and lawmakers reached an agreement to postpone the primary on Sunday, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.

Pennsylvania joins over 10 states in delaying their primaries amid the pandemic.
