Control of the Pennsylvania State Senate is coming down to five districts: four Republican seats Democrats are targeting (the 6th, 16th, 24th and 40th) and the 36th, which Democrats flipped in a 2025 special election. Two more seats tie the Senate, and the Democrat Lt. Governor breaks the tie. Senate Democratic candidates have already spent $12.3 million on TV and streaming ads in those districts.

Control of the State Senate, and with it the future of your gun rights in Pennsylvania, is coming down to a handful of districts. I want you to know exactly where they are.
Democrats are targeting four Republican Senate seats: Sen. Frank Farry in Bucks County’s 6th District, Sen. Jarrett Coleman in the 16th, Sen. Tracy Pennycuick in Montgomery County’s 24th, and Sen. Rosemary Brown in Monroe County’s 40th. They’re also fighting to hold the 36th District in Lancaster County, a seat Trump won by 15 points that Democrat James Malone flipped in a 2025 special election by a few hundred votes.
Here’s the math the Left is working, according to the Inquirer. Flip two Republican seats and hold the 36th, where state Rep. Tom Jones is challenging Malone.
| Two more seats tie the Senate, and the Democrat Lt. Governor breaks the tie to hand them control: the leadership, the committee chairmen and the calendar. |
And they’re spending like they mean it.
According to AdImpact data reported by the Inquirer, Senate Democratic candidates have already spent $12.3 million on TV and streaming ads in those five districts. In the 6th District alone, Farry’s Democratic challenger has put $3.3 million into ads. In the 24th, Pennycuick’s challenger has spent $3 million.
And those figures don’t include direct mail or other outreach. We won’t see the full totals until campaign finance reports come out later this month.
Here’s what worries me most. Josh Shapiro is at the top of the ticket with a double-digit lead in the polls, and Democrats are counting on that to carry their Senate candidates across the line. Shapiro himself has put $5.7 million into the state party and its coordinated campaign.

Will you give $20 to help us reach gun owners in these five districts? If you can give $25, please do. If $10 is better, that helps too.

PFA can’t match the Left dollar for dollar, and I won’t pretend we can. What we can do is make sure gun owners in these five districts know exactly what a Democratic Senate means for them, and get them to vote like their rights depend on it. Because they do.
You can also help hold the Senate here.
For Pennsylvania,

P.S. Five districts. Two more seats tie the Senate, and the Democrat Lt. Governor breaks the tie to hand them control: the leadership, the committee chairmen and the calendar. Senate Democratic candidates have already spent $12.3 million on TV in those races. Please give $20 now, or $10 if that’s better for you, to help hold the line.
