Harvie Picks Up Endorsement Of PA Governor In Campaign For Congress

Shapiro’s backing gives Harvie a boost as Democrats try to flip a Republican-held seat and target four Pennsylvania districts.

  • On Sunday, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro formally endorsed Bucks County Commissioner Bob Harvie for the Democratic Party nomination in Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District.
  • Harvie, a former public school teacher, is challenging Republican Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick to represent the district covering Bucks County and parts of Montgomery County.
  • Shapiro also endorsed Democrats Bob Brooks, Paige Cognetti, and Janelle Stelson for the 7th, 8th, and 10th Congressional Districts, while the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee backs four Pennsylvania candidates.
  • Facing scientist Lucia Simonelli in next week's primary, Harvie seeks to unseat Fitzpatrick, whom national ratings outlets describe as a 'likely Republican' frontrunner.
  • Democrats hope Shapiro's popularity will boost candidates like Harvie in the Keystone State, aiming to flip Republican-held seats and reclaim the U.S. House of Representatives this November.
