I just checked the margin in the 1st and it looks like Fitzpatrick just barely got over 60%, which is shocking even if the race was called pretty early.
Yeah, this was actually Fitz's worse performance in the last 3 cycles.
63/37 - 2020
66/34 - 2022
61/39 - 2024
If Houck was actually funded, this might've got interesting...
I just checked and it looks like Houck won the borough where I live, which would explain why I was getting the feeling he might have a shot. I guess a lot of his support was concentrated in the more conservative areas of the county (naturally) but Fitzpatrick ran up the numbers in places like Bensalem and Doylestown. If Fitzpatrick faces another primary challenge in 2026 and that candidate is able to thin the margins in some of the larger population centers, it could get interesting.
