Moderate Republicans Rally Against Freedom Caucus Chair, Scott Perry

Democrats in Pennsylvania are determined to unseat Rep. Scott Perry, the chairman of the ultraconservative Freedom Caucus, who played a role in trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Seven Democratic candidates are vying to replace Perry, banking on voters rejecting his involvement in the "Big Lie" and his hardline positions on issues like abortion. Recent polling suggests Perry is vulnerable, with a low approval rating and a slim lead against a generic Democratic candidate. Democrats are also capitalizing on Perry's record on abortion, as the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade has energized Democratic voters. Anti-Trump Republicans are also joining the effort to oust Perry, supporting moderate Democratic candidates in the hopes of toppling the six-term congressman.
