Democrats have emerged victorious in five out of \u2062the previous\u2064 six races. The vacancy \u2062in the 140th district\u2064 arose due to the resignation of former Democratic\u2062 state Rep. John \u200dGalloway in November 2023, as he transitioned to a\u2064 judicial role after serving the seat for 16 years.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats view this district, which encompasses Bucks County near Philadelphia, as a significant indicator\u200b for the 2024 presidential election. With its blue-leaning tendencies, Biden secured a victory\u2062 in this district by\u200d a margin of 17,000 votes in 2020.
