Politico Magazine turned its attention to the race for the Eighth District congressional seat late in the week.

Reporter Erick Trickey wrote the story titled “The Suburb That Could Flip the House.” The report focuses on the race between Republican Brian Fitzpatrick and Democratic State Rep. Steve Santarsiero, who are both running for Fitzpatrick’s brother’s House of Representative seat.

The article talks about the Eighth District’s make up and focuses on the Levittown area. Due to the district’s composition and voting record, political watchers say the congressional race could end up going to either candidate.

“Whether Democrats can reclaim Pennsylvania’s competitive 8th District comes down to one question: What do voters there think of Donald Trump?” the article states.

LevittownNow.com, which licensed a photo for use in the article, also makes an appearance as Trickey writes about Fitzpatrick’s campaign ad on the site.
