The same two major-party candidates are contesting a rematch after Perry held the seat in 2024 by roughly 1.2 points.

The 2024 result is relevant to a direct rematch, but campaign spending, turnout and electorate composition need not repeat.

Earlier results may reflect different candidates and, across redistricting cycles, different geographic boundaries. The historical vote is not a prediction.

Polling record: what is verifiable?

Compare source-dated district polls rather than interpreting a close 2024 result as a 2026 forecast.

We have not reviewed enough comparable recent public district surveys to publish an original average. A missing value is preferable to a fabricated number.

For current candidate filings and published surveys, consult the race source. We will add actual toplines only when fieldwork dates, candidate matchup and source can be verified.

What to verify as voting approaches

  • New district-level polls: sample, population, sponsor, and exact field dates.
  • Official ballot and polling-place rules from the state or local election authority.
  • Candidate disclosures and campaign claims against source documents.
  • Election-night county returns and outstanding ballots; do not confuse a media call with certification.

Race background

Incumbent Scott Perry and Janelle Stelson are the major-party nominees in Pennsylvania’s 10th District, which includes communities in the Harrisburg–York region.

What to watch on November 3

For reliable election-night comparisons, distinguish actual official county totals from reporting percentages estimated by a television network or data vendor.

Reading a race call: Preliminary totals are unofficial. Media projections must name the projecting outlet; certification comes from authorized election officials.
