GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania — Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA), who is up for reelection next fall, celebrated the sweeping victories for Pennsylvania Democratic candidates after voters approved to retain three state Supreme Court justices, preserving Democrats’ 5-2 majority on the state’s highest court.

“Tonight, folks across our Commonwealth sent a resounding message by voting to retain all three Supreme Court Justices who will continue to defend the rule of law, safeguard our elections, and protect our constitutional rights,” said Shapiro, who played a visible role in helping retain that majority for his party.
