WARMINSTER, Pa. (AP) Democrats in Pennsylvania backed by Gov. Josh Shapiro won their primaries Tuesday to shape a congressional slate in which they hope to flip the states four swing districts and, ultimately, capture a U.S. House majority.
Janelle Stelson, Bob Harvie and Bob Brooks won the partys nomination in three swing districts where Democrats had a contested primary for the right to take on Republican seat-holders in November.
All were endorsed by Shapiro, the Democratic governor who is putting his clout on the line in trying to help flip the House seats and also deliver Democratic control of the state Legislature to advance his own agenda.
Speaking to a primary night crowd, Shapiro considered a potential White House contender in 2028 spent a considerable amount of his speech attacking President Donald Trump and a Republican Congress that he said is weak, serves Trumps will and gives Trump a free pass on wrongdoing and corruption.

There's not a lot of media focus on Pennsylvania right now, because Shapiro ran unopposed in the primary, and there's no Senate race this year. They're bored with us, while everyone is looking at the southern states, and California, but that's OK.
We have an awesome Governor who is sure to win his 2nd term. We're working hard to flip the US Congressional District seats that we almost won in '24, and it seems like we have a good chance. Let's go PA Democrats! We have some work to do in the next 5 months.
