Democratic state Representative Tina Davis soundly defeated Republican challenger Kelly Bellerby-Allen, also of Bristol Township, according to unofficial results Tuesday night.
Davis won the redrawn 141st legislative district 64.1 to 33.8 over Bellerby-Allen, who operates a business on Mill Street in Bristol Borough.
The Republican challenger said this past summer the key to her beating Davis would be winning Bristol Borough and turning out democratic voters unhappy with high inflation and overall economic conditions.
