It was a +18 point Trump district in 2024.   Bye Bye to the Trump endorsed Republican.

You MAGAts should learn to guage voter sentiment more closely.

Learning never ends...  ask @teacher   I have training to get done.. with pauses built in for trolling.  Its dumb, I get a session done and have to wait 10 minutes for the timer to get access to the final quiz.

Nothing is hidden—the final numbers were just finishing filtering in from yesterday's vote!
According to unofficial returns from the August 18, 2026 special election for Pennsylvania's 12th State House District, Democrat Brandon Dukes won a narrow victory over Republican Scott Timko. [1]

Unofficial Election Results

• Brandon Dukes (D): 8,434 votes
• Scott Timko (R): 8,346 votes
• Margin: Dukes won by 88 votes [1]

Key Takeaways

• District Flip: This outcome flips a Butler County seat that had been securely held by Republicans for nearly three decades.
• House Majority: The victory expands the Democratic party's razor-thin majority in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives to 103–100.
• November Rematch: Because this special election was only to fill the remainder of former Representative Stephenie Scialabba's term, Dukes and Timko will face each other again in the November 3, 2026 general election for the full two-year term. [1, 2]
