If the Democrats gain the election – the Blue district – it will be the fifth time this year that they came about to achieve with a special legislative election with a state majority.
It comes when the Democratic Party tries to get out of the political wilderness after the Stecher elections in November when the party lost control of the White House and the US Senate and in its attempt to win back the US house majority from the GOP.
Survey position: The figures of the Democratic Party plunge to all lows
The latest surveys show that the Democratic Party brand has to be repaired.
The favorable evaluation of the party sank in separate national surveys carried out by CNN and NBC News this month. These figures followed a record low for Democrats in a survey by Quinnipiac University in February in this area.

In a sign of the importance of the local election, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Ken Martin, stopped in the district last month.
“Sending Dan to Harrisburg is not just about what it means for this community,” said Martin in a statement on Fox News. “A signal sends to the Pennsylvanians. A signal on Democrats across the country sends us to fight for our values at every level.”
