EXCLUSIVE — Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) is demanding that a Bucks County commissioner recuse herself from serving on the board of elections this cycle, claiming her “partisan bias is on full display in this election,” according to a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner.

In the letter, attorneys for Fitzpatrick write that Bucks County Commissioner Diane Ellis-Marseglia “cannot be trusted to exercise judgment, discretion and fairness in important matters involving the election of our public officials” because of her open support for Bob Harvie, the Democratic nominee against Fitzpatrick and a colleague of Ellis-Marseglia on the county commission.
