THREE SPECIAL ELECTIONS FAST APPROACHING

Three special elections are on the horizon for Republican held seats. Holding on to these 3 are important to help take the House back from the ultra-left Democrats.

One is in Pennsylvania and the other two are in North Carolina. Both states will be battlegrounds in 2020.

Pennsylvania Special Election

A special election will be held on May 21, 2019, to fill the remainder of the term for Pennsylvania's 12th congressional district in the United States House of Representatives. Tom Marino, a Republican, resigned from office effective January 23.

The conservative Republican candidate is State Representative Fred Keller. The Democrat Marc Friedenberg is a supporter of a government controlled health care system under so-called Medicare for all rubric.

North Carolina's 3rd Congressional District Special Election

This seat became open with the death of long-time conservative maverick Congressman Walter Jones.

The primary will be held April 30. If no one candidate receives at least 30% of the vote, there will be runoff primary on July 9. If a candidate receives more than 30% of the vote, there will not be a runoff and the special election will be held July 9. If a candidate in either party's primary doesn't receive 30%, there will be a runoff primary on July 9. The special election will then be held on September 10.

As of now, there are numerous Republican candidates running in the primary.

North Carolina's 9^th Congressional District Special Election

With charges of voter fraud in this past November's election, the results were thrown out and a special election was called. The primary is May 14. If no one candidate receives 30% of the vote, there will be a primary runoff September 10. If a candidate does get 30% in the primary, the special election will be September 10. If there is a runoff, the special election will be November 5.

As of now, the Democrat will be Dan McCready who lost narrowly this past November. A hard fought primary is taking place on the Republican side. Nancy Pelosi and her cronies are and will be putting millions into this race.
