25th District To Stay Same In Realignment
Realignment plans to be presented to the General Assembly would keep the 25th congressional district unchanged, covering Beaver Butler and Lawrence counties. The plan would reduce the state's 30 districts to 27, merging Philadelphia's six Democratic districts into five and reconfiguring Blair, Centre, and other counties into new constituencies. It would pit George Rhodes of Reading against Ivoy D. Fenton of Mahanoy City in a proposed swing district pairing.
