It's Conor Lamb! Dems choose candidate for PA-18 to replace Tim Murphy:

BREAKING: Conor Lamb wins the Democratic nomination for Congress in #PA18!

"I’m honored that the Committee members have put their trust in me to fight for our district and make our voices heard in Washington. People in our district are sick and tired of being lied to by hypocrites who promise us jobs but never deliver, promise us health care then try to take it away, promise to protect Medicare and Social Security then try to gut these programs to pay for corporate tax cuts. I’m going to expose that hypocrisy. I’m going to take the fight against their anti-middle class, anti-American agenda right to them. And by the time we get to March 13th, there will be no doubt who truly represents the families of this district. We’re going to fight for every single vote, and we’re going to win.”

He will face off against republican Saccone on March 13. VOTE!!

It was a very exciting day, and the Democrats are on-message and unified. It's going to be a helluva fun fight against Saccone.

Lamb seems like a great candidate! I think he gives us a chance in PA-18.

I'm in PA-12, but will do anything I can to support Lamb's run.
