In the governor’s race, Attorney General Josh Shapiro won the uncontested Democratic primary, while state Senator Doug Mastriano clinched the Republican nomination, winning 44% of the vote. Representatives Carrie DelRosso (R-Allegheny) and Austin Davis (D-Allegheny) won their respective parties’ nomination for lieutenant governor.

Current Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman won the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate, garnering 59% of the vote, while the race on the Republican side remains too close to call with Mehmet Oz and David McCormick deadlocked at 31%.

In the U.S. House, all 15 current members of the Pennsylvania Congressional Delegation running for reelection won their respective primaries.
