Description | Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D-Pa.) officially launched her campaign for governor Monday, and she enters the race as the early frontrunner to face Gov. Tom Corbett (R) in a top-targeted race for Democrats.
Schwartz, 64, has represented a Philadelphia-based district since since 2005. She made her intention to run for governor known in February, so Monday’s announcement came as little surprise.
“A state as great as Pennsylvania can no longer tolerate Harrisburg’s business as usual,” Schwartz said in a release. “We are ready for a strong, effective leader who shares Pennsylvania’s priorities. I am ready to use my skills and experience to build on our state’s assets, find common ground, and get results for Pennsylvania’s middle class families.” |
