PA-10: A Pennsylvania House race looks a lot like the campaign between Trump and Biden

YORK, Pa. — One of the most competitive congressional elections in the country is a Central Pennsylvania contest that looks and sounds an awful lot like the presidential race.

The race for Pennsylvania’s 10th District pits a moderate Democrat against a conservative stalwart, an election that could go either way in a region that has slowly but surely become more of a battleground.

Democratic challenger Eugene DePasquale, Pennsylvania auditor general, says he’ll be a congressman “for the entire district … not just a right-wing ideology.”

Incumbent Republican Rep. Scott Perry, a reliable ally of President Donald Trump, dismisses DePasquale as a radical in moderate’s clothing. “Moderates don’t have fund-raisers with Nancy Pelosi and I think Central Pennsylvanians get that," Perry said earlier this month.
