From Philly.com:
In Delaware County’s 162nd District, Republican Nick Miccarelli, a 26-year-old Iraq War veteran and Ridley Park councilman, trounced Democrat John DeFrancisco, former president of United Aerospace Workers Local 1069.
Miccarelli will replace his former boss, outgoing Republican state Rep. Ron Raymond, for whom he had served as chief of staff.
“Our campaign was successful because our elected officials, our labor leaders, our business leaders and our community leaders carried us on their backs,” Miccarelli said. “This victory truly belongs to them.”
