US EditionDemocrats defend Pennsylvania Supreme Court majority in a race with 2028 implications
- On Nov. 4, Pennsylvanians retained Justices Kevin Dougherty, Christine Donohue and David Wecht, preserving a five-Democrat, two-Republican majority on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
- State and national groups poured resources as both parties flooded voters' screens and mailboxes, with the Associated Press estimating more than $15 million spent in the retention fight.
- Democrats ran ads stressing abortion rights, while Republican criticism of the justices as partisan was backed by conservative megadonor Jeff Yass and allied spending groups organizing major efforts.
- Democrats will remain able to counter legal threats, retaining control and testing Eugene DePasquale, chair of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party, in a pivotal vote Tuesday.
- The near-term composition could still change because Justice Christine Donohue, 72, may face mandatory retirement in 2027 despite retention, and Republicans would need replacement elections in 2027 to flip the majority.
