More on what to expect in 2026 Elections

Elections will be held for the Governor of Pennsylvania, as well as all 17 of the state's U.S. House of Representatives seats, half of the seats in the State Senate, and all seats in the State House.

Pennsylvania has been a crucial swing state in recent years. Donald Trump became the first Republican since 1988 to win Pennsylvania on the presidential level in 2016, and won it again in 2024. Democrats currently have a one-seat majority in the House of Representatives, and Republicans have a two-seat majority in the State Senate.

The state's U.S. Senate delegation is split between Republicans and Democrats, following the ousting of Bob Casey Jr. in 2024. Democrats currently control the governorship.

Democrats suffered statewide losses in 2024, losing control of one of Pennsylvania's U.S. Senate seats, the Attorney General's office, and all other statewide offices up for election.

Republicans gained a majority in the state's U.S. House delegation, unseating Democratic representatives Matt Cartwright and Susan Wild. Donald Trump won Pennsylvania over Kamala Harris after Pennsylvanians previously voted for Joe Biden in 2020.

Holiday Nostalgia

Nostalgia. If there was ever a word I could most closely associate with my favorite parts of the holiday season, it's nostalgia.Of course, being a Millennial who grew up in Philadelphia, nothing sparks more nostalgia for me than the Christmas Light show at John Wanamaker's department store.
