EYEWITNESS NEWS (WBRE/WYOU) — The seat for Pennsylvania's House of Representatives 120th District was a battle between Republican nominee Brenda Pugh and Democratic nominee Fern Leard.
Early Wednesday morning, the Associated Press declared Brenda Pugh to be the winner of the Pennsylvania's House of Representatives 120th District race.
PA House of Representatives District 120 was left vacant after Aaron Kaufer (R) stepped down from the position in January 2024 after serving as a representative since 2015.

Fern Leard is a native of NEPA, mother of twins, and long-time healthcare advocate. Leard's political journey began when a health insurance company denied an essential part of her son’s treatment, advocating for a bill in Congress that would mandate coverage.
Leard states she is committed to using her experience to serve the people as the next State Representative.
Brenda Pugh, born and raised in northeastern Pennsylvania, is a business owner, wife, mother, and community leader. As State Representative, Pugh says she plans to use her background and knowledge to provide common sense solutions to the challenges we face.
