Pennsylvania was a Republican state government trifecta heading into the 2014 elections but two of the bodies that comprise it were at high risk of party change.
In a state where the Republican governor was behind in the polls and the State Senate was at risk of flipping to the Democrats, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives was a crucial focus for the Republicans.[1]
The Pennsylvania House of Representatives was one of 20 state legislative chambers noted by Ballotpedia staff as being a 2014 battleground chamber. The Pennsylvania House had a difference in partisan balance between Democrats and Republican of 20 seats, which amounted to 9.9 percent of the chamber. In 2012, a total of 17 districts were competitive or mildly competitive. There were seven districts where the margin of victory was 5 percent or less in the 2012 elections. Another 10 districts had a margin of victory between 5 percent and 10 percent.
The Democrats needed to get the better of the most competitive seats, as well as pick up a few more. They looked for opportunity in the number of incumbents retiring; 18 incumbents retired, and only five of them were Democrats. The Republicans overwhelmed the Democrats in most of the competitive races.
Elections for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives took place in 2014. A primary election took place on May 20, 2014. The general election was held on November 4, 2014. The signature filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was March 11, 2014.
Following the general election, there was no change to the majority control of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. The chamber was controlled by the Republican Party, which increased its total seats from 111 to 119. The Democratic Party suffered a net loss of seven seats, dropping from 91 to 84 seats. The chamber's vacant seat was filled during the general election.
Incumbents retiring[edit]
Eighteen incumbents did not run for re-election in 2014. Those incumbents were:

Competitiveness[edit]
Candidates unopposed by a major party[edit]
In 117 (57.6%) of the 203 districts up for election in 2014, there was only one major party candidate running for election. Fifty-nine Republicans and 58 Democrats were guaranteed election barring unforeseen circumstances.
Two major party candidates faced off in the general election in 86 (42.3%) of the 203 districts up for election. Six of those seats held competitive elections in 2012 with a margin of victory ranging from 0 to 5 percent. Nine other elections were mildly competitive, with a margin of victory of 5 to 10 percent. Those districts were:

Primary challenges[edit]
Thirty-nine incumbents faced primary competition on May 20. Eighteen incumbents did not seek re-election in 2014 and another 146 incumbents advanced past the primary without opposition. The state representatives who faced primary competition included:
Retiring incumbents[edit]
Eighteen incumbent representatives did not run for re-election, while 185 (91.1%) of the 203 incumbents ran for re-election. A list of those incumbents, 13 Republicans and five Democrats, can be found above.
Qualifications[edit]
Under Article II of the Pennsylvania Constitution, Senators shall be at least 25 years of age and Representatives 21 years of age. They shall have been citizens and inhabitants of their respective districts one year next before their election (unless absent on the public business of the United States or of this State) and shall reside in their respective districts during their terms of service.
Races to Watch[edit]
- District 74: The Republican Legislative Campaign Committee (RLCC) announced in July that District 74 was apart of the organizations "14 in ‘14 Races to Watch." In District 74, Harry Lewis, Jr. (R) defeated Joshua Maxwell (D) in the general election. Thomas Sankey (R), the incumbent, ran for District 73. The RLCC was expected to spend a large amount of money to influence the election. RLCC Chairman Speaker Samuel Smith (R), and the Speaker of the House, expected Republicans to retain control of both chambers and pick up even more seats.[2] On the other hand, Senate Minority Leader Jay Costa believed that Democrats had a great opportunity to take control of the Senate if Tom Wolf, the Democratic candidate for governor, held or grew his lead over Gov. Tom Corbett in the polls.[3]
- District 81: Write-in candidate Richard Irvin (R) defeated incumbent Michael Fleck (R) in the Republican primary, but Fleck won as a write-in candidate in the Democratic primary. District 81, a mostly conservative district, previously re-elected Fleck three times before he came out as gay in 2012. Irvin (R) defeated Fleck (D) in the general election.[4]
