Jim Gerlach retiring

Sabato has it as Toss-Up. I think it's a bit more Tilt/Lean R. Certainly not impossible for Dems to win here, but I won't hold my breath.




That being said, there's something to be said about the flight of GOP moderates in the house. Gerlach, Latham, Runyan, Wolf. If LoBiondo or Reichert retire next, that'll just be the icing on the cake.

Judy Schwank is also out. However, State Rep. Mike Rozzi is in.

How good of a candidate is he? Is he suited for the district?

He's only been in office for a year, and his district barely overlaps with PA-06 (Although given how gerrymandered it is, that's probably going to be true for everyone who gets in the race). Other than that, he's a mystery.
