Pennsylvania's 1st congressional district

And I'm 100% against gerrymandering.

I honestly wish that every district in the country was like District 1 Pennsylvania and you had to compete for it.

And I think that that's what's happening, whether you're in a deep blue or you're in a deep red, you don't get the competition.

And I think in anything in life, whether it's technology, whether it's business, whether it's sports, competition breeds the best to the top.

You can read her, of course, in the best and the brightest.

Leanne, you wrote a small but I thought very thoughtful piece in the email a couple days ago about Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick, a Republican who represents Pennsylvania's 1st District.

Basically, Bucks County, Philly suburbs, very swingy.

Hillary Clinton won it in 16.

in either direction.

And this hour, we have a front row seat to the one closest to home, the Pennsylvania First Congressional District that encompasses all of Bucks County and a sliver of Montgomery County.

The race pits incumbent Republican Brian Fitzpatrick, a former FBI agent who first won the seat in 2016, against Democratic challenger Bob Harvie, a county commissioner and former public school teacher.

We've been in talks with both campaigns-

They may even have heard about this on the podcast.

Now, Riley Rogerson over there dug into what's going on in PA-1, that's Bucks County, when it comes to a seat in Congress, and, uh, the ads and, and the stabbing back and forth stuff that's going on with Brian Fitzpatrick and his, uh, supporters.

Well, it turns out the one who ran the ad, made the ad that said, you know, "Bob Harvey calls himself a king.

'Hey, Mr. Harvey, did you call all the police Nazis?'" That guy is actually who we thought he is, Dave Summers from Levittown, Pennsylvania.

And with the margin so slim, four races here, five races here can be the difference, can give Democrats control and could put up a big fat firewall over the final two years of the Trump agenda.

We're digging deep now into the Pennsylvania 1st District.

That's the one in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

That's suburban Philadelphia.

It might be that, you know, people are just so fed up that they want to toss their incumbent out.

And you go up to Pennsylvania's 1st District, where I was on Saturday, Ryan Fitzpatrick is a 10-year incumbent.

His brother represented the district before him for two, eight of the previous 12 years.

And they feel like they have a family brand there that has overcome big anti-Republican waves in the past.
