The Voter Protection Project announces support for Bucks County Commissioner Bob Harvie in his run for Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District
SACRAMENTO, CA – The Voter Protection Project (VPP), the nation’s largest PAC dedicated to electing voting rights champions and holding Republicans accountable for their attacks on democracy directly at the ballot box, is endorsing Bob Harvie for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 1st District, one of just three seats that split tickets last cycle between Harris and a congressional Republican.
“We are honored to endorse Bob Harvie, a lifelong Bucks County resident and former teacher with a proven track record of delivering for his community at the local and county level,” said Heather Grevenworth, Executive Director of The Voter Protection Project. “Brian Fitzpatrick campaigns every cycle as a moderate bipartisan member of Congress. Meanwhile, he has sold out the people of Southeast Pennsylvania to prove his loyalty to Trump and has voted for devastating cuts to law enforcement, education, and Medicaid. The choice is simple.”
“I’m honored to be endorsed by the Voter Protection Project, an organization committed to defending free and fair elections across the country. As Chair of the Bucks County Board of Elections since 2020, I’ve worked to ensure every vote is counted and every voter’s voice is heard—regardless of party. In a time when voting rights are under attack, I’m proud to be recognized as a champion for democracy. In Congress, I’ll continue fighting to protect the sacred right to vote and stand up to anyone who tries to take it away,” said Bob Harvie, Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District candidate.
Last cycle VPP supported over 30 voting rights champions including newly elected Senator Ruben Gallego (AZ), Senator Elissa Slotkin (MI), Congresswoman Kristen McDonald Rivet (MI-08), Congresswoman Janelle Bynum (OR-05), and Congressman Josh Riley (NY-19). Without a Democratic majority in Congress, Trump and his MAGA extremists will continue their relentless assault on democracy, chipping away at our most fundamental rights. That’s why VPP is laser-focused on identifying and electing fearless leaders like Bob Harvie who will put Democrats back in control—ensuring every American’s sacred right to vote is protected, expanded, and never threatened.
