The DLCC made a six-figure investment to protect the Democratic majority on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court
Early this year, the DLCC added the Pennsylvania Supreme Court seats to the DLCC Target Map
WASHINGTON — Tonight, Pennsylvanians voted to retain all three Pennsylvania Supreme Court justices on the ballot, helping to secure the commonwealth’s Democratic majority on the court through 2030. Thanks to these victories, the court’s Democratic majority will continue to protect fair maps, voting rights, and reproductive freedom for Pennsylvanians.
Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee President Heather Williams issued the following statement:
“The DLCC is proud to congratulate Justices Christine Donohue, Kevin Dougherty, and David Wecht on retaining their seats on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Tonight, Pennsylvanians sent a clear message to Republicans who are trying to take over the judiciary to keep themselves in power: you can’t escape accountability from the voters. From protecting Pennsylvanians’ voices at the ballot box to securing their freedoms and opportunities, we are confident these justices will continue to stand up for working families throughout the rest of their terms.”
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) is the campaign arm of Democratic state legislatures and leads the national strategy for building power and winning new majorities. Over the last three decades, we have strategized cycle over cycle to win majorities and lead the effort to bring national attention and investment to our ballot level, winning nearly a dozen new chamber majorities over the last decade. Our work has ensured that nearly half of Americans are represented by at least one Democratic majority in their statehouse. State legislatures are the building blocks of our democracy and have the closest connections to Americans’ day-to-day lives. From protecting fundamental freedoms and voting rights to growing the middle class and advancing opportunity, the DLCC and state legislators are moving the Democratic agenda forward and shaping the future of this country.
