Democrat files to run in Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District

(WHTM) – Another Democrat has entered the race for Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District.

Tracy Hunt, an attorney and professor in Bucks County, has filed to run in a district currently represented by incumbent Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R).

“For years, Tracy didn’t think politics made much difference,” says Hunt’s campaign website. “He believed in shared values—freedom, rights, and the rule of law—and didn’t always vote along party lines. But as Republican extremism grew, he saw the America he believed in slipping away. That’s why he joined the Democratic Party—the party of Kennedy, Clinton, and Obama.”

Bucks County Commissioner Bob Harvie (D) previously entered the Democratic primary race in April.

Fitzpatrick has served in the House since 2017 after succeeding his brother, longtime Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick. In the last two general elections, Fitzpatrick defeated Democrat Ashley Ehasz, receiving at least 54% in both races.

Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District represents all of Bucks County and part of Montgomery County.
