Saccone Circulating Petitions for New 14th District

Written by Paul Engelkemier, Managing Editor

State Rep. Rick Saccone (R-Allegheny), who lost in a close special election for the old 18th Congressional district, announced he is circulating petitions for the new 14th Congressional district.

“As we go through the process to ensure the integrity of the Special Election, we must also focus on petition circulation for the new district, PA-14. Please help us file petitions with a strong showing by circulating this weekend,” Saccone’s campaign Facebook posted.

Saccone lost the special election to Democrat Conor Lamb by a few hundred votes, but is still exploring ways to force a recount.

Saccone is the first Republican to publically state he is circulating petitions for the 14th Congressional district.

Nominating petitions for the Congressional primary are due to the Department of State by March 20th.
