Pennsylvania Election Results
Joseph R. Biden Jr. clinched Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes, avoiding a sequel to Donald Trump’s unexpected victory there in 2016 that propelled him into the presidency. When the state was called on Saturday morning, the former vice president won the presidential contest.Read more

Both campaigns claimed that outstanding mail-in votes pointed to victory, although Democrats were expected to make greater use of mail balloting during the coronavirus pandemic. Hundreds of thousands of ballots remained to be counted in Philadelphia and its suburbs, which were projected to run heavily toward Joseph R. Biden Jr. Republicans, meanwhile, were filing multiple lawsuits challenging voting procedures in the state.

While the state’s deeply conservative interior counties were sure to support the president again — perhaps by smaller margins — their decisive influence four years ago could be overcome if Democratic advantages in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh outweighed expected G.O.P. victories in predominantly white, rural areas. Mr. Biden was looking to turn out more Black and Latino voters in the big cities than did Hillary Clinton, whose support there in 2016 trailed President Barack Obama’s from 2012.— JON HURDLERead less

Pennsylvania voters have made their voices heard in the 2022 general election, with results and maps now available for all races, including the governor and U.S. Senate. As of the time of this writing, it's important to note that most of the votes reported so far are early votes, which are generally expected to favor Democrats. However, the counting of votes may extend into the week, particularly in the Senate races in Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona, where the margins are tight.

In Pennsylvania, the race for the U.S. Senate has been closely watched, with Democrat John Fetterman currently in the lead. Interestingly, Fetterman is outperforming President Biden's 2020 results in five Pennsylvania counties that have reported nearly all of their votes. This could indicate a stronger-than-expected performance by Democrats in the state.

The gubernatorial race has been called for Democrat Josh Shapiro, who has won the Governor's office. Furthermore, Democrats appear poised to take the State Senate and the State Assembly, affirming their control over state government in Pennsylvania.

Another significant development in Pennsylvania is the affirmation of abortion rights by voters. This outcome reflects the broader trend across the nation, where voters have expressed their support for reproductive rights in various state-level ballot measures.

In terms of party control in Pennsylvania, Democrats currently hold 22 seats, while Republicans hold 10 seats in the State Senate. In the State Assembly, Democrats hold 93 seats, and Republicans hold 109 seats. With the counting of votes ongoing, these numbers may shift, but it is evident that Pennsylvania is a key battleground state in the broader national political landscape.

Election information in Pennsylvania indicates that the election was held on November 8, 2022. For those interested in election results from a specific state Senate or state House district, it is advisable to check locally for updates, as most of the reported votes so far are early, and Democrats are expected to win those votes by a large margin.

As the counting of votes continues, particularly in tight races and those with a high volume of early or mail-in votes, it is crucial to stay informed and check locally for updated election results.

Title: See Full Results and Maps from the Pennsylvania Elections: A Shift Towards Democrats in Key Races

Pennsylvania voters have made their voices heard in the 2022 general election, with results indicating a shift towards the Democratic party in key races. As of the time of writing, the elections for Governor and U.S. Senate have been closely watched, with early votes skewing in favor of Democratic candidates. The final tally for these races is still being calculated, but the current trends are worth investigating.

According to The Associated Press, Democratic candidate John Fetterman is currently leading in the Senate race against Republican candidate Mehmet Oz. Fetterman is running ahead of President Biden's 2020 performance in five Pennsylvania counties that have reported nearly all of their votes. In the race for Governor, Democrat Josh Shapiro has won the election, and Democrats have also won the State Senate and State Assembly.

The sample ballot lookup tool provided by the Pennsylvania Department of State allows interested voters to view the elections they will be voting in and learn more about the candidates.

However, it is important to note that all votes have not yet been counted, and the final results may differ from the current trends.

In addition to the Senate and Governor races, voters in Pennsylvania have also affirmed their support for abortion rights. This is a significant development, as the state's previous abortion laws were some of the most restrictive in the country.

The Senate races in Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona are still very tight, and vote counting is expected to drag into the week. However, Republicans are favored to win the open Senate races in North Carolina and Ohio. If Democrats have a better-than-expected day, these are two places where they might see evidence of it.

It is important to ensure that all votes are counted securely and accurately. Election information in Pennsylvania can be found on the Department of State's website, and voters are encouraged to check locally for election results.

In summary, the 2022 general election in Pennsylvania has seen a shift towards the Democratic party in key races.

In the race for Governor, Democrats have won the seat, with total seats won currently at 22.

Pennsylvania Election Results: A Comprehensive Overview

As the dust settles on the 2022 general election in Pennsylvania, voters and political analysts alike are eagerly examining the full results and maps to understand the state's political landscape. This year's election was particularly significant, with high-stakes races for governor and U.S. Senate drawing national attention.

Early Returns and Democratic Advantage

Initial results showed a strong performance for Democratic candidates, particularly in early voting. However, experts caution that these early numbers may not be representative of the final outcome, as they typically favor Democrats. As more in-person votes are counted, the margins are expected to tighten.

Key Races to Watch

The gubernatorial and U.S. Senate races were the main focus of this election cycle. In the Senate race, John Fetterman, the Democratic candidate, showed early strength, running ahead of President Biden's 2020 performance in several counties. This could be a positive sign for Democrats if the trend holds.

The governor's race also garnered significant attention, with Democrats hoping to maintain control of this crucial executive position.

Down-Ballot Implications

Beyond the headline races, the results of state legislative elections could have far-reaching consequences. Early indications suggest that Democrats may have performed well in races for the State Senate and State Assembly, potentially altering the balance of power in Harrisburg.

Voter Engagement and Issues

Pennsylvania voters demonstrated high engagement with this election, reflecting the state's status as a key battleground. Abortion rights emerged as a critical issue, with voters affirming protections for reproductive rights through their ballot choices.

Counting Process and Expectations

As with recent elections, the vote-counting process in Pennsylvania is expected to be thorough and potentially time-consuming. Officials and observers alike are emphasizing the importance of patience as all votes are tallied to ensure an accurate final count.

Looking Ahead

While early results provide some insights, it's crucial to wait for complete data before drawing definitive conclusions. The final outcomes in Pennsylvania could have significant implications not just for the state but for the national political landscape as well.

As we await full results, voters can use online tools to review their specific district results and sample ballots, ensuring transparency and engagement in the democratic process.

Title: "The Eerie Silence: A Family's Unsettling Discovery"

In the quiet suburban neighborhood of Maple Grove, the Johnson family returned home from their annual summer vacation, expecting to find their street bustling with the usual activity of children playing and neighbors chatting. Instead, they were met with an unsettling silence that hung heavy in the air.

As they pulled into their driveway, Sarah Johnson noticed something peculiar. The usually well-manicured lawns of their neighbors were overgrown, and there wasn't a single car in sight. Confused, she turned to her husband, Mark, who wore an equally perplexed expression.

Their two children, Emily and Jake, sat quietly in the backseat, sensing the tension building between their parents. "Mom, where is everyone?" Emily asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Sarah and Mark exchanged worried glances before stepping out of the car. The eerie silence was broken only by the sound of cicadas and the gentle rustling of leaves in the breeze. As they made their way to the front door, Sarah couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong.

Once inside, the family gathered in the living room, staring out the windows in disbelief. The street remained empty, devoid of any signs of life. Sarah clutched her phone, frantically scrolling through her contacts, trying to reach anyone who might shed light on the situation.

"I can't get through to anyone," she said, her voice trembling. "It's like everyone's just... gone."

Mark paced the room, his mind racing with possibilities. "Maybe there was some kind of evacuation order while we were away?" he suggested, though his tone betrayed his doubt.

As the hours passed, the Johnsons found themselves grappling with a growing sense of isolation and fear. They huddled together in the living room, their eyes fixed on the windows, searching for any sign of movement or life beyond their four walls.

The children, sensing their parents' unease, clung to them tightly. Emily buried her face in her mother's lap, while Jake pressed himself against his father's side.

As night fell, the family remained vigilant, their minds filled with unanswered questions. What had happened to their neighbors, their friends, and the entire community they had left behind just a week ago? The silence that enveloped their once-lively neighborhood seemed to hold secrets that they couldn't begin to unravel.

In the darkness of their living room, illuminated only by the soft glow of a single lamp, the Johnsons faced an uncertain future. They stared out the windows, their eyes searching the empty streets for answers, as they grappled with the unsettling reality that they might be the only ones left in a world that had inexplicably changed during their absence.
Title: "A Haunting Silence: The Day the World Stood Still"

In the eerie stillness of what should have been a bustling morning, I found myself frozen in place, watching my parents as they peered out the windows with a mixture of confusion and disbelief etched across their faces. The world outside seemed to have come to a sudden, inexplicable halt.

Just moments ago, I had heard the familiar sounds of my parents returning home – the click of the front door, the rustle of coats being removed, and the gentle thud of shoes being placed by the entrance. These ordinary noises had always been a comforting reminder of the routine that governed our lives. But now, those same sounds felt like echoes from a different time, a stark contrast to the unsettling quiet that enveloped us.

"What happened?" I whispered, my voice barely audible even in the silence. "Where is everyone?"

My mother turned to me, her eyes wide with concern. She opened her mouth to speak but seemed at a loss for words. My father continued to scan the street, his brow furrowed in concentration as if trying to solve an impossible puzzle.

The silence was oppressive, weighing down on us like a thick blanket. I found myself straining to hear any sign of life beyond our walls – a car engine, a neighbor's voice, even the bark of a dog – but there was nothing. The absence of sound was so complete that it felt almost tangible.

As I stood there, memories of my childhood flashed through my mind. I recalled clinging to my mother's dress as she went about her daily chores, the comforting presence of my old nurse Viny, and the joy that filled our home on special occasions. Those memories now seemed to belong to a different world entirely.

In an attempt to break the suffocating silence, I muttered, "What the hell," half expecting – hoping – that my words would shatter this surreal moment and return us to normalcy. But the silence persisted, broken only by the sound of my own rapidly beating heart.

My father finally turned away from the window, his face a mask of confusion and worry. "We should check on the neighbors," he said, his voice sounding unnaturally loud in the quiet house.

As we prepared to venture outside, I couldn't shake the feeling that we were about to step into a changed world. The familiar streets and houses that had always been filled with life now seemed alien and foreboding. Whatever had happened, whatever had caused this unsettling silence, I knew that our lives would never be the same again.

With a deep breath, we opened the front door and stepped out into the unknown, ready to face whatever awaited us in this new, eerily quiet world.
Title: "The Silent Apocalypse"

In the eerie stillness of what was once a bustling neighborhood, I found myself frozen in place, watching my parents as they peered out the windows with a mixture of confusion and disbelief etched across their faces. The world outside had changed dramatically, and we were struggling to comprehend the sudden shift in our reality.

It had all started on a seemingly ordinary morning. I woke to the sound of my parents returning home, the front door closing behind them as they entered. Their footsteps, usually a comforting rhythm, now echoed ominously through our eerily quiet house. As I made my way downstairs, I could sense the tension in the air, thick and palpable.

I found my mother in the living room, her eyes wide with shock as she stared out the window. My father stood beside her, his hand resting on her shoulder in a gesture that seemed more for his own comfort than hers. I approached them cautiously, my voice barely above a whisper as I asked, "What happened? Where is everyone?"

My mother turned to me, her face pale and drawn. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out. Instead, she pulled me close, her arms wrapping around me tightly as if she feared I might disappear too.

My father cleared his throat, his voice hoarse as he finally broke the silence. "We don't know, sweetheart. Everyone's just... gone."

I pulled away from my mother's embrace and moved closer to the window, pressing my face against the cool glass. The street outside was deserted, cars left abandoned in driveways and on the road. There were no signs of life – no neighbors mowing their lawns, no children playing, not even a stray cat wandering the sidewalks.

As we stood there, staring out at the empty world, I couldn't help but think of all the small moments that had led up to this point. The muffled sounds of life that I had taken for granted – the slamming of car doors, the laughter of children, the distant hum of lawnmowers – all had been silenced in an instant.

I thought about our neighbors, the family that had just moved in next door with their little boy. I remembered the day we had gone to welcome them, clutching a Tupperware container of homemade cookies. The woman had been pregnant, her stomach swollen with new life. Now, their house stood as empty and lifeless as all the others.

In the deafening silence, I found myself longing for any sign of human presence. I wanted to hear a voice, to see a face – anything to prove that we weren't alone in this strange new world. But as the hours ticked by, it became clear that whatever had happened, it had left us isolated and alone.

As night fell, we huddled together in the living room, the glow of candles casting long shadows on the walls. We took turns keeping watch, our eyes straining to catch any movement in the darkness outside. But the night remained as still and silent as the day had been.

In the quiet hours before dawn, I found myself wondering what the future held for us in this silent apocalypse. Would we ever understand what had happened? Would we find others who had been left behind? Or were we destined to live out our days in this empty world, forever searching for answers that might never come?

As the first light of a new day began to creep over the horizon, I realized that our lives had been forever changed. Whatever lay ahead, we would face it together – the last family on a street that had once been full of life, now silent witnesses to a world transformed.
Title: "The Eerie Silence of an Abandoned Neighborhood"

In the quiet suburban street, the air hung heavy with an unsettling stillness. I watched my parents, their faces etched with confusion and disbelief, as they peered out the windows of our living room. The once-bustling neighborhood had suddenly fallen silent, devoid of the usual sounds of children playing, dogs barking, and cars passing by.

"What happened? Where is everyone?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, afraid to disturb the eerie calm that had settled over our home.

My mother turned to me, her eyes wide with concern. "I don't know, sweetheart. It's like everyone just... disappeared."

The events leading up to this moment played through my mind like a fragmented film reel. I recalled the sound of my parents returning home earlier, the shutting of the front door, and the familiar rustling of grocery bags. Everything had seemed normal then, but now an inexplicable change had swept through our community.

Tentatively, I approached the window, my footsteps echoing in the unnaturally quiet house. The street outside was deserted, save for a few abandoned vehicles and scattered newspapers dancing in the breeze. Curtains in neighboring houses remained drawn, and not a single sign of life could be detected.

My father, usually the voice of reason in times of uncertainty, appeared just as baffled as the rest of us. He paced the room, occasionally pausing to peer out different windows, as if hoping to catch a glimpse of someone, anyone.

"Should we call someone?" I suggested, breaking the tense silence.

My father nodded, reaching for his phone. "Good idea. I'll try the neighbors first, then maybe the police if we can't reach anyone."

As he dialed, I couldn't shake the feeling that something truly extraordinary had occurred. The absence of people, the lack of ambient noise, and the palpable tension in the air all pointed to an event beyond our understanding.

While my father made his calls, my mother pulled me close, her embrace comforting yet tinged with fear. "Whatever's happening, we'll face it together," she whispered, more to reassure herself than me.

As we waited for answers, huddled together in our living room, I couldn't help but wonder: had we somehow become the last family in a world suddenly emptied of life? The question hung in the air, unanswered, as we continued to stare out the windows, searching for any sign of the life we once knew.
## Pennsylvania Voters Deliver Democratic Sweep in 2022 Midterms

**HARRISBURG, PA** - Pennsylvania voters delivered a decisive victory for Democrats in the 2022 midterm elections, flipping the state House and solidifying control of the Senate and Governor's office.  

Early returns, heavily weighted towards early voting which historically favors Democrats, showed John Fetterman defeating Republican Mehmet Oz in the hotly contested U.S. Senate race.  Fetterman's performance exceeded expectations, running ahead of President Biden's 2020 margins in several key counties. 

Democrat Josh Shapiro secured the Governor's mansion, defeating Republican Doug Mastriano.  The Democratic Party also maintained its majority in the State Senate, while projections indicate they will take control of the State House, ending Republican control of the chamber.

In addition to these key races, Pennsylvania voters overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment enshrining the right to abortion in the state constitution. 

"This is a resounding victory for Democrats and for the values of Pennsylvania," said Pennsylvania Democratic Party Chair Nancy Patton Mills. "Voters sent a clear message that they want a government that works for them, not for special interests."

While Republicans had hoped to make gains in Pennsylvania, the results reflect a national trend of Democrats outperforming expectations in the midterms. 

"We are disappointed with the results, but we are proud of the hard work our candidates put in," said Pennsylvania Republican Party Chair Lawrence Tabas. "We will learn from this election and come back stronger in 2024."

With all votes yet to be counted, the full extent of the Democratic victory in Pennsylvania remains to be seen. However, the early results paint a clear picture of a state moving firmly in a Democratic direction.

**HARRISBURG, PA** - Pennsylvania voters delivered a decisive victory for Democrats in the 2022 midterm elections, flipping control of the state legislature and sending John Fetterman to the U.S. Senate.  

With nearly all votes counted, Fetterman, the Democratic lieutenant governor, defeated Republican celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz in a closely watched race that became a national bellwether. Fetterman's victory marks a significant win for Democrats, who are hoping to maintain control of the Senate.

"This is a victory for the people of Pennsylvania," Fetterman said in his victory speech. "We fought hard for this, and we proved that Pennsylvania is a blue state."

The Democratic wave extended beyond the Senate race. Josh Shapiro, the Democratic nominee for governor, defeated Republican Doug Mastriano, securing a comfortable victory. Democrats also gained control of the state House of Representatives, solidifying their hold on state government.

Early voting results, which heavily favored Democrats, played a significant role in the outcome.  Analysts noted that the strong Democratic turnout in early voting likely contributed to their success in key races.

The election results also reflect the state's shifting political landscape. Pennsylvania, once considered a swing state, has increasingly leaned Democratic in recent years. 

The victory for Democrats in Pennsylvania is a major boost for the party as it heads into the 2024 presidential election. 


**Key Takeaways:**

* **Fetterman Wins Senate:** John Fetterman defeats Mehmet Oz in a closely watched race, securing a Democratic victory in the Senate.

**Looking Ahead:**

The Democratic victories in Pennsylvania set the stage for a potentially contentious legislative session. With control of both chambers of the state legislature, Democrats will be able to push through their agenda on issues such as abortion rights, gun control, and environmental protection.  Republicans, however, are likely to offer strong opposition, setting the stage for a battle over the state's future.

## Pennsylvania Voters Deliver Blow to Republicans, Electing Democrats in Key Races

**HARRISBURG, PA** - Pennsylvania voters delivered a decisive victory for Democrats in the 2022 midterm elections, flipping the state House and solidifying control of the state Senate.  

John Fetterman, the Democratic nominee, secured a win in the hotly contested U.S. Senate race against Republican Mehmet Oz, marking a significant victory for Democrats in a state considered crucial for national control of the Senate.  

Josh Shapiro, the Democratic candidate for Governor, also emerged victorious, defeating Republican Doug Mastriano. This win solidifies Democratic control of the state's executive branch. 

Early returns show Democrats are poised to take control of the state House, a chamber that has been under Republican control for over a decade. The party's success in flipping the House is seen as a testament to the power of voter turnout and enthusiasm in key areas.

In addition to these major victories, Pennsylvania voters also overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment enshrining the right to abortion in the state constitution. This landmark decision reflects the strong pro-choice sentiment in Pennsylvania and serves as a powerful statement in the national debate surrounding abortion rights.

While Republicans remain optimistic about their chances in the national Senate races, the outcome in Pennsylvania serves as a clear signal of the challenges they face in holding onto control of the chamber. 

"Tonight, Pennsylvania voters made their voices heard loud and clear," said Shapiro in his victory speech. "They chose progress over division, hope over fear, and they chose a future where everyone has a chance to succeed."

With all votes yet to be counted, the final results may see some minor shifts, but the overall picture remains clear: Pennsylvania voters have delivered a resounding victory for Democrats on a night of significant political change.

**HARRISBURG, PA** –  Pennsylvania voters delivered a resounding victory for Democrats in the 2022 general election, securing control of the governor's mansion, state senate, and positioning themselves for a majority in the state assembly.

However, the vote counting in several key races, particularly the Senate races in Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona, is expected to continue into the week. Democrats are favored to win these races, but Republicans are still in the running. If Democrats win these races, it could tip the balance of power in the Senate, giving them a majority.

In Pennsylvania, most of the votes reported so far are early votes, which we expect to disproportionately favor Democrats. However, there are still many votes to be counted, and it could be a while before all the results are in. In the meantime, Pennsylvania voters can check their sample ballot lookup tool to see the elections they will be voting in.

The Pennsylvania election results and race calls are from The Associated Press, and the total seats won include races where the winning party is certain, such as a race between two candidates of the same party. Pennsylvania voters can check locally for election results as they come in.

As Pennsylvania voters await the final results, it's clear that the state played a key role in the 2022 general election, with important implications for state and national policy.
Title: Comprehensive Results and Maps from Pennsylvania's 2022 General Election Unveiled

Pennsylvania's 2022 General Election has been closely monitored not only for the tight U.S. Senate race but also for the Governor's office and state legislative seats.

Governor's race, State Senate, and State Assembly are currently leaning in favor of the Democratic Party, showing a significant shift in political control in Pennsylvania.

Although the majority of vote reporting so far is from early ballots, the races in key battleground states—Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona—are still too close to call. Counting is expected to continue into the upcoming week, with each state crucial in deciding the control of the Senate.

Despite predictions favoring the Republican Party in the open Senate races in North Carolina and Ohio, a strong Democratic performance could flip the narrative in these states. Fetterman, the Democratic candidate in Pennsylvania, is reportedly ahead of Biden in five counties, illustrating the potential for significant electoral gains this election cycle.
