Blue Pennsylvania

While our General Assembly complains about federal interference, they keep passing laws that limit what local governments can do. To fight back, Blue Pennsylvania teams up with our suburban allies, building on what Philly Neighborhood Networks has already done—helping candidates, getting folks to vote, and reaching out.

We keep an eye on new laws that could help or hurt our goals and act accordingly. Our efforts are paying off — we're just two senate seats away from having all three parts of the state government under Democratic control.

If the Unions Won't Support Labor Candidates, it is up to us to do so

Do you vote for somebody who is aligned with your political views 46% of the time, or do you vote for someone who will, in all probability, align with your political views 98% of the time? According to the latest AFL-CIO scorecard, the average score (i.e., the percentage voting with Labor) for the seven Pennsylvania Democrats in Congress was 98% for 2025 and 99% for their lifetime. The ten Republicans in Pennsylvania’s Congressional delegation achieved an average 6% in 2025

Blue Pennsylvania: The Good, and the We Can Do Better

The good news is that since January, Democrats have increased their numbers by nearly 25,500 voters, while Republican registrations have declined by more than 4,500. This news is especially heartening in the counties where we will be working this fall. Here is a breakdown of the numbers and the changes in our five-county area plus Lehigh.

Legislation Watch: HB123
#RankedChoiceVoting

Contact Your Representative

Forget the wonky diagrams and high school civics videos. Here’s what Ranked Choice Voting means in real, tangible terms:

No more vote-splitting. You can rank your favorite candidate first without worrying that you’re “helping the other side.”
Real majority rule. No more winning with 30%. RCV ensures every winner has over 50% support by reallocating votes from eliminated candidates.
Coalition politics, not toxic-attack politics. Candidates are incentivized to appeal to their opponents’ supporters, not smear them.
New voices rise. Voters can support underdogs without strategic hesitation, making it possible for community organizers and outsider candidates to win.

Pennsylvania can be next. But only if we organize — locally, consistently, and together.

Let's stop choosing "the lesser of the evils" and start voting for the leaders we truly believe in. HB 123 would give local jurisdictions the option to use #RankedChoiceVoting for local elections. Use the link above to write your State Representative and ask them to demand hearings and movement forward on HB 123.
