HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — With the U.S. House narrowly divided, contests for Pennsylvania’s seats will be critical to determine who will control the chamber. Democrats are defending their 9-8 advantage in the state’s 17-seat delegation and the parties view five Pennsylvania races as competitive. Pennsylvania has one of the 16 House districts nationally that Joe Biden won in 2020 but are represented by Republicans. Pennsylvania also has one of the eight districts that Donald Trump won but are represented by Democrats. Republicans are especially eyeing two pickup opportunities in eastern Pennsylvania where Democratic Reps. Susan Wild and Matt Cartwright each won by slim margins in 2022.
