Voters on both ends of Pennsylvania are heading to the polls to decide who will lead the most populous counties. The elections on Tuesday will set the electoral stage for 2024. In the nation’s sixth largest city, voters in Philadelphia will be electing their new mayor, Democrat Cherelle Parker or Republican David Oh.
FILE - Democratic mayoral candidate Cherelle Parker is seen during a debate with Philadelphia Republican mayoral candidate David Oh at KYW Newsradio in Philadelphia, Thursday, Oct. 26, 2023. Voters on both ends of Pennsylvania are deciding Tuesday, Nov. 7, who will lead the state’s most populous counties, in races that could help shape how Democrats talk about crime, progressive policy and abortion in the political arena.
Parker, 51, a former state legislator and former city councilmember, is favored to win in the heavily Democratic stronghold. Her tough-on-crime and moderate approach resonated with voters in a crowded primary in May.
Innamorato, 37, is a former state lawmaker who resigned to pursue local office. Pushing to modernize county government and create a community-driven office, she campaigned on progressive policies like taking a public health approach to public safety, affordable and dignified housing and a revamped workforce. She also has invoked national issues such as abortion and voting rights that can be protected at the local level.
