Unofficial

Unofficial results. Unofficial, not yet certified: the Department of State’s Unofficial Returns, read between 08:44 and 09:04 UTC on November 9, 2026 (the site prints no as-of time; its banner reads “8,931 Out of 9,065 Districts (98.52%) - IN PERSON BALLOT REPORTING ONLY”). Counts can change until certification. “Leads” means ahead in the unofficial count, never a call.

As of , unofficial, per the Department of State’s Unofficial Returns site (read in a browser) (electionreturns.pa.gov): 246 Pennsylvania contests are loaded. In the unofficial count, Statewide (1 contest): Republicans lead 0, Democrats lead 1; U.S. House (17 contests): Republicans lead 6, Democrats lead 11; State Senate (25 contests): Republicans lead 9, Democrats lead 16; State House (203 contests): Republicans lead 89, Democrats lead 113. A lead is not a call.

Pick an office on the left and a filter on top. Every contest is one row, set against the same seat in 2022 and 2024. Everyone sees the statewide contests and the five closest seats in each chamber; Pro opens every district.

Unofficial returns, read in a browser. Nothing is called.
  • The past results (2022, 2024) are the Department of State bulk precinct files summed to counties, and they are shown as unofficial canvass totals, not as certified. They fall slightly short of the certified statewide figures: for 2024 President the files sum to 3,543,041 for Trump and 3,420,865 for Harris, against 3,543,308 and 3,423,042 certified. We state no cause for the difference.
  • There is no U.S. Senate race in Pennsylvania in 2026, and governor is the only statewide office on the ballot.
  • Unofficial, not yet certified. The site prints no as-of time, so this is when we read it: between 08:44 and 09:04 UTC on November 9, 2026. Its banner reads “8,931 Out of 9,065 Districts (98.52%) - IN PERSON BALLOT REPORTING ONLY”. Nothing is called: “Leads” means ahead in the unofficial count.
  • Not reconciled: the Governor vote total on the site (4,985,374) and the ballots cast it prints (5,006,279), and the site’s count of districts reporting (8,931 of 9,065) and the Department’s Supplemental Returns PDF of November 6 (9,065 of 9,065). We have not reconciled either pair, and we state no cause.
  • The 17 U.S. House districts and the 25 even-numbered State Senate districts are district totals, with county portions in the saved file. The 203 State House districts are district totals only: county tables were captured for 0 of 203.
  • Uncontested seats read Unopposed (60 State House districts have one candidate, and State Senate districts 2, 8 and 42). A seat where a major party fielded no candidate reads No Republican candidate or No Democratic candidate, never 0 votes. State House 2 has one candidate who is on both the Democratic and Republican ballots (shown D/R); that seat leads for neither party.

The state page lists results from approved rows drawn from state results feeds and Wikipedia; those are not the counts on this desk, which shows the Department of State’s Unofficial Returns, not certified. See the state page.

Sources and method

  • 2026: the Department of State’s Unofficial Returns site (read in a browser), read Mon, 09 Nov 2026 08:44:40 GMT. Unofficial, not yet certified. Governor by county (checksum 6c738e669ef8) U.S. House (checksum 18adfbddcef0) State Senate (checksum e519e284abb4) State House (checksum 1729193f45da)
  • 2022 and 2024: the Department of State’s bulk precinct returns files, summed over each district’s counties. 2022 (checksum bf1334b36237) 2024 (checksum 34339122238f)
  • District maps: There are no district maps for Pennsylvania yet. County outlines are U.S. Census Bureau cartographic boundaries (public domain).
  • Which seats appear: every seat on the 2026 ballot that the Unofficial Returns site lists: governor, all 17 U.S. House seats, the 25 even-numbered State Senate seats and all 203 State House seats (district totals; no State House county tables). There is no U.S. Senate race, and no seat is called. Past results come from the Department of State bulk returns files.
  • Margin: Republican votes minus Democratic votes, as points of all votes in the seat. A seat with one candidate shows “Unopposed”. Shift: this year’s margin minus the margin in the year you compare with. Leads change: the leading party in the unofficial count differs from the latest earlier contest for the same seat (2024 if it was on the ballot, otherwise 2022). It describes the count so far; nothing is called.
  • District lines: Pennsylvania used the court-ordered 2022 congressional map and the 2021 legislative plan in 2022 and 2024, and uses them again in 2026, so a district of the same number is the same area in every year. The State Senate staggers: the even-numbered seats were on the 2022 ballot and are on the 2026 ballot, so their 2024 cell reads Not listed.
