Pennsylvania Democrat Might Challenge John Fetterman

September 6, 2026 · 4:08 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Rep. Chris Deluzio (D-PA) said he “might” mount a primary challenge to Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) in 2028, NewsNation reports.

Said Deluzio: “I might, I haven’t decided that. And to be really blunt, I’m doing everything I can right now to help Democrats in Pennsylvania flip congressional seats to give Josh Shapiro a governing majority in the state Senate and grow the majority in the state House.”

He added: “John Fetterman’s nowhere to be seen on the campaign trail. And again, to be very blunt, I don’t think there’s any Democrat in Pennsylvania who wants him campaigning with them.”
