EYEWITNESS NEWS (WBRE/WYOU) — In a rematch from the 2020 election, Republican incumbent Dan Meuser has defeated his challenger, Democrat Amanda Waldman in the race for Pennsylvania's 9th Congressional District.
Meuser released the following statement after being declared the winner in Pennsylvania's 9th Congressional District race for 2024.
I am grateful to the people of Pennsylvania's Ninth District for entrusting me once again to represent our community in Washington. When I first ran for office, I promised to deliver the best constituent services in Congress, and I am confident we’ve fulfilled that pledge. My team and I remain committed to providing top-tier services to the residents of our region to ensure their needs are met effectively and in a timely manner.
In Washington, my priority remains pursuing legislation that is in the best interest of the vast majority of Americans—including growing our economy, securing our border, promoting American energy dominance, and restoring peace through strength. I’ll continue working to advance common-sense solutions that strengthen our economy, create jobs, make the cost-of-living more affordable, and keep our communities safe.
While it is still early in the night, I am confident that Republicans will retain the House majority, take the majority in the Senate, and that Donald J. Trump will be elected the 47th President of the United States. Unified Republican leadership across our government would empower us to advance policies that promote fiscal responsibility, reduce burdensome regulations, curb illegal immigration, and defend our national security. Together, with President Trump’s leadership, we will pursue an agenda that puts America and working families first.
To every volunteer, supporter, and member of my campaign team—thank you for your dedication and hard work. And to the voters of the Ninth District, thank you for your trust and your vote. Your support is invaluable, and I look forward to continuing serving you in Washington.
