Republican Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick (PA -1) easily won re-election Tuesday night over Democrat Ashley Ehasz.

Fitzpatrick of Levittown earned his fourth term in the House of Representatives by a 10 point margin over the Democratic challenger who campaigned as a “pro choice” candidate.

It’s Fitzpatrick’s second consecutive win over a Democratic woman challenger. He trounced  Christina Finello in 2020 by a little more than 14 points in Pennsylvania’s first congressional district.

Democrats continue to unsuccessfully target the now four term representative due to the lead in registered Democratic voters in the district that covers all of Bucks County and slice of Montgomery County.

“Our community is not far-left or far-right, we are centrist and pragmatic,” read a portion of Fitzpatrick’s statement. “I ask all in our community to join us in leading our People’s Movement of bipartisanship and center-forward problem solving, and to fight against the bigotry of hyper-partisanship and extremist ideological purity that is destroying our nation,” the Congressman said in a published report

“I am so proud of what we accomplished here, and I hope you are too.
Without taking a dime of corporate PAC money or outside institutional support, we turned out more Midterm voters than ever before in PA01. I look forward to keeping this momentum going, and to what comes next,” Ehasz said Wednesday on her campaigns Facebook page.
The “Fitzpatrick Brand” of politics cites the Congressman as an independent voice for the people of the district seeking to solve community and national issuers with an eye towards practical solutions
Fitzpatrick is a member and Co-Chair of the Bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus which  aim is to create a durable bloc that champions ideas that appeal to a broad spectrum of the American people. It is a group united in the idea that there are commonsense solutions to many of the country’s toughest challenges.
