Brian Munroe Makes History In Pennsylvania's 144th District [View all]

Democratic State Representative-elect Brian Munroe has a unique opportunity that no other democrat has experienced in over half a century. Pennsylvania’s 144th district, under Republican control since at least 1968, turned blue in the November midterm election.

According to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives archives, no Democrat, in approximately 55 years, has ever represented the district.

“To be sent to Harrisburg by my neighbors from Warminster, Warrington, Ivyland, and New Britain is an honor,” said Munroe.

More than an honor, it’s also a major political accomplishment given the history of the seat.
