The DNC congratulates Bob Harvie for winning the Democratic primary for Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District. Across Pennsylvania, Democratic voters backed candidates like Harvie who are focused on lowering costs, protecting healthcare, and fighting for Pennsylvania's working families. This year, Democrats are seizing the opportunity to flip Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District blue and take back the majority in the House of Representatives.
In response to Harvie's victory, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
"Bob Harvie is a twice-elected Bucks County commissioner and card-carrying union member who has always delivered for his community. While Brian Fitzpatrick has supported Trump's agenda that is raising costs and ripping away healthcare from millions, Harvie will be a champion for Pennsylvania's working families in Congress. Across the country and across the Commonwealth, Democrats have the momentum we need to flip this seat blue and retake the House. The DNC is ready to help organize and mobilize voters until Election Day to elect a real fighter for Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District and send Harvie to Congress."
