HARRISBURG (AP) — Pennsylvania will emerge from the Tuesday elections with the House legislative chamber evenly split between Republicans and Democrats, at least temporarily, after a House member was elected district judge.

Democrats, who have clung to a one-seat majority in the Pennsylvania House, will soon see the chamber return to a 101-101 tie after Bucks County Democratic Rep. John Galloway, who was on the ballot as both parties’ nominees, could resign any time before taking the oath as judge.

The vacancy will then require House Speaker Joanna McClinton, a Democrat, to set a special election no sooner than 60 days later in the Democratic district Republicans will be eager to flip.

Under current state House rules, Democrats will maintain their majority unless and until Republicans win back at the ballot box the majority they held for a decade until last year’s election.

For the time being Galloway, who did not return messages Wednesday, remains a state House member.
