Scott Perry holds off challenge for Pennsylvania's 10th District

Incumbent Rep. Scott Perry (R) has guarded his seat from Democratic challenger Janelle Stelson, according to a projection from The Hill/Decision Desk HQ. 

Last month, Cook Political Report shifted the closely watched race in the Keystone State’s 10th District from “lean Republican” to “toss up,” as Stelson, a former Republican, made gains in fundraising. 

Perry, who was first elected in 2019, has a history of overcoming tough races. National Republicans had brushed off predictions of the former Freedom Caucus Chair’s race as a toss up, citing Perry’s tight wins in previous elections. 

Still, party leaders, such as Speaker Johnson (R-La.) made trips to Pennsylvania’s 10th District to rally support for Perry. 

Perry contested the 2020 presidential election results, finding himself subject to federal probe investigating former President Trump and his allies’ efforts to overturn the election.
