A DAY TO REMEMBER
Pennsylvania was key in Nov 3rd’s Blue Wave. We flipped four Republican house seats, including Paige Cognetti in our own 8th Congressional District. Even in red Pike County, we managed to increase Paige’s vote by 5% over the 2024 election results that sent Bresnahan to DC. And we helped re-elect Tarah Probst to the PA State Assembly! And Dems flipped the PA State Senate!!! Now things can get done in Harrisburg.
Similarly, elsewhere in our area, our endorsed candidates, Jackie Baker and Dominique Azzollini, increased their votes by about 5% over the number of their counterparts in 2022 (20th PA Senate District) and 2024 (139th PA Assembly District). Although they did not win, their hard work is helping turn NE Pennsylvania purple. THANK YOU, Jackie and Dominique!

In addition, all of the candidates endorsed by DVA! won their positions in the 2026 Primary Election--the wave is coming. We hope you will consider running for a local position in 2027.
