Upcoming PA Leadership Fight




One certain leadership fight will take place next week in the Pennsylvania House. Democrats expanded their majority from one seat to five so they'll want to undo the deal that made Republican Dennis O'Brien speaker two years ago.

Majority Leader Bill DeWeese has been tarnished by the Bonusgate scandal, so Whip Keith McCall has announced his run for the top job, with DeWeese's backing. O'Brien has said he expects to be out, due to the changed numbers.
