Blair County’s three state lawmakers appear poised to breeze through the May primary election without any opponents.
Petitions for all elected positions were due by the close of business on Tuesday. An online document filed by the Pennsylvania Department of State late Tuesday show there were no challengers against 30th District State Senator John Eichelberger, Altoona State Representative Rick Geist, and 80th District State Representative Jerry Stern. Records also show that 9th District Congressman Bill Shuster will run unopposed.
Locally, several people have filed petitions for open seats on the local and state Republican and Democratic committees.
