Democrats Bet on Working-Class Appeal in Pa.'s Key Primary

Pennsylvania's 7th District Democratic primary pits union-backed Bob Brooks, touting working-class roots, against former DOJ prosecutor Ryan Crosswell, who emphasizes anti-Trump governance; Brooks has broad party backing including endorsements from Bernie Sanders and Josh Shapiro, reflecting a concerted push to broaden the Democrats' appeal beyond the anti-Trump base, while Crosswell leverages fundraising to stay competitive and the race features Latino outreach and other candidates ahead of the district's pivotal primary.
