Scott Perry Secures Seventh Term in Pennsylvania's 10th District
The Republican incumbent overcame a strong challenge from Democrat Janelle Stelson in one of the year's closest races.
- Rep. Scott Perry won re-election with 50.8% of the vote against Janelle Stelson's 49.2%, according to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ.
- Perry's victory was supported by prominent Republican figures, including Speaker Mike Johnson and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise.
- Stelson, a former TV anchor and Republican-turned-Democrat, focused her campaign on Perry's association with the January 6 Capitol riot.
- The race was initially rated as a 'toss-up' by Cook Political Report due to Stelson's strong fundraising efforts.
- Perry emphasized issues like the economy, public safety, and national security, while opposing tax increases by the Biden-Harris administration.
