The races for PA Commonwealth and Superior Court have gotten surprisingly little attention. Those are hugely important and are likely to be much closer than the retention votes.
If you need any more motivation to cast a ballot, here it is.

The last time Lancaster County elected a Democrat to the Pennsylvania Senate was in 1889, when John S. Hoover won a special election.
136 years later, James Malone joins the club.

With all precincts reporting, Democrat James Malone leads by 0.89%.
Keep in mind, SD-36 completely excludes the City of Lancaster. It's the once reliably-red suburbs, exurbs, and small towns that have flipped this district.

I'm ready to call it: Democrat James Malone has FLIPPED SD-36.
It will be the first time in who knows how long that Lancaster County has elected a Democrat to the State Senate.

Solid batch for Dem. James Malone. 89/120 precincts in and he's beating his benchmarks by about 1% on average. Rep. Josh Parsons needs to do several points better the rest of the way to catch up.

With 68/120 precincts reporting in SD-36, Democrat James Malone is beating his benchmarks in 42 precincts, and Republican Josh Parsons is beating his in 26. My model says we're headed for a close race, with Malone having a slight edge at the moment.

Another way I'm looking at PA SD-36 results so far:
Dems lost this district by 12% in the 2023 Supreme Court race. In the 5% of precincts reporting election day votes so far, the Dem is overperforming that result by 15%.

Today's special election in northern Lancaster County presents the tantalizing but longshot possibility that the R-friendly incumbentmander of Pennsylvania's senatorial map could fail. I'll be following along just in case this gets interesting.

Out of the three Harris district Republicans in Congress, one has clearly proven himself as the best (when it comes to overperforming), Brian Fitzpatrick in #PA01.
Despite Harris carrying his suburban Philly district, Fitzpatrick easily won re-election last year, winning by 13!

Last year in #PA08, we saw Democratic incumbent Matt Cartwright lose re-election to Republican Rob Bresnahan by about two points.
This NEPA district has been trending to the right in the Trump era and Trump winning this district by 8 was probably enough to cost Cartwright.
