Republican incumbent in deadlocked Pennsylvania district a Pelosi ‘target’ as Democrats aim to flip seat

Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa., the incumbent in what is being called the closest congressional race in not only Pennsylvania, but the entire U.S., says Democrats are throwing the “kitchen sink” at his team in order to flip his seat.

“I have the sense that it’s a targeted race by [House] Speaker [Nancy Pelosi], and while I’m sure that they think that they can do that, they don’t live in the district, they don’t come here and they don’t know much about it,” Perry told Fox News. “We were certainly expecting them to pour a ton of money into the district. That’s what they’re doing … They’ve already thrown the kitchen sink at me before, so we knew that was going to come.”

Most polls show Pennsylvania’s 10th district, which encompasses the Harrisburg area, in a dead heat.
