On Tuesday, Democratic voters across Dauphin County and most of Cumberland and York Counties will choose the next challenger to the seven-term Republican incumbent in the U.S. House of Representatives, Scott Perry. The expected 60,000 or fewer voters, based on previous midterm primaries, have the choice between former local TV news anchor Janelle Stelson and Dauphin County Commissioner Justin Douglas.
The Democratic primary in Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District is starting to turn heads. Janelle Stelson is refusing to debate her opponent Justin Douglas, a Dauphin County commissioner. In turn, Douglas is refusing to endorse Stelson should she win the primary unless she liberalizes more of her positions, including on immigration.
Leaders in the Bhutanese refugee community in Pennsylvania say two fellow refugees are detained and facing deportation. It’s the latest in a series of cases where President Donald Trump’s administration is deporting the refugees back to a country that simply kicks them out again.
Immigrant and workers rights activists endorsed Justin Douglas on Tuesday for the Democratic nomination for Pennsylvania’s 10th congressional district, and leveled harsh critiques at the Democratic Party’s leading candidate Janelle Stelson.
