Republicans outraise Democrats with Pa. likely at the center of determining control of U.S. House

For the second quarter in a row, Republican U.S. House members in Pennsylvania significantly outraised their Democratic colleagues and challengers.

The six top fundraisers among the commonwealth’s 17-member House delegation over the past three months are GOP incumbents. However, the top four fundraisers, U.S. Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-1st District), Rob Bresnahan (R-8th District), Scott Perry (R-10th District), and Ryan Mackenzie (R-7th District), are being targeted by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) as seats it is prioritizing to flip in 2026.

Republicans maintaining their current narrow majority beyond 2026 may hinge upon those few key races in Pennsylvania.

Christopher Borick, director of Muhlenberg College’s Institute of Public Opinion, told the Capital-Star he thinks Republicans outraising Democrats in Pennsylvania at this point in the cycle is a sign that they are aware of the challenge that is in front of them next year.
