Sara Agerton

Sara Agerton is a former social worker, health care administrator, and Mechanicsburg Borough Council member running to flip a seat in the Pennsylvania House this fall. The daughter of a welder, Sara was raised to value community and hard work, leading her to pursue a career in social work. Now she’s ready to stand up and fight for working families on issues such as access to affordable health care and housing, improving public education, and lowering the cost of living.

Sara ran strong campaigns as a DLCC Target Race candidate in 2022 and 2024, coming closer to unseating House District 88’s deeply entrenched GOP incumbent than anyone has in over a decade. The positive environment in 2026 is the perfect opportunity to finish the job, and Sara is in a better position than ever to help Democrats expand their majority in the Pennsylvania House.

2026 is a historic opportunity to build power in Pennsylvania by defending our House majority and picking up Senate seats in this key battleground state. After several cycles of hard-fought gains, DLCC is committed to winning and defending Democratic power in Pennsylvania.

Our work this year begins with defending and expanding our majority in the Pennsylvania House, which the DLCC and state Democrats flipped in 2022 and have defended ever since..

We’re also working to gain ground in the Senate, where half of the seats are on the ballot this year. With the legislature under split control, the Pennsylvania Senate GOP majority has rubber-stamped Trump’s disastrous agenda and blocked Democrats from advancing solutions for working families at every opportunity.
