One Republican, one Democrat lead race for 2 Superior Court judge seats
HARRISBURG — Candidates from each party are holding leads for the pair of open Pennsylvania Superior Court seats while officials finish counting votes from Tuesday’s election.
Philadelphia Judge Dan McCaffery, a Democrat, was leading the four-candidate field early Wednesday, and Republican prosecutor Megan King from Chester County was running about 30,000 votes ahead of the third-place candidate.
Their respective parties are claiming wins for McCaffery and King, although The Associated Press has not called the race.
Trailing are Democrat Amanda Green-Hawkins, a longtime steelworkers’ union lawyer from Pittsburgh, and Republican Christylee Peck, a Cumberland County judge.
