Pike concedes, setting stage for Trivedi vs. Gerlach in 6th Dist.
If you do not be acquainted with who mañana Trivedi enough, you will in November.
Trivedi, an Iraq war veteran, affirmed victory yesterday afternoon in the Sixth Congressional District Democratic main election for the award earlier Inquirer leader writer Doug Pike - 20 hours after the ballot vote closed Tuesday night.
After defeat Pike from a low 672 votes, or 1.6 proportion points, taking Trivedi now four-term Republican U.S. Rep.. Jim Gerlach in the region that includes parts of Chester, Montgomery and Berks counties. It is perhaps the most spirited districts.
Girl, 61, who contribute more than $ 1 million of his own cash to his campaign and seem to have a clear direction for the proposal last year, acknowledged yesterday after concluding that there were probably countless votes to change the outcome. He urged his group to unite behind Trivedi, 35, a doctor from Birdsboro.
"We will take it to him," Trivedi said of Gerlach. "We are ready to do this."
For Gerlach, 55, sees this year's election much as 2002 - and 2004, 2006 and 2008. With an standard conquest margin of only 2.6 proportion points over the last four election, Gerlach is used to latent with one eye open, always watchful for the next well-financed Democrat who is gunning for his job.
"It is not tiring. It really is a big confront, and I be grateful for the challenge," Gerlach said in a meeting call yesterday.
But Trivedi could the son of immigrant from India, who work at the Red Cheek apple juice plant may be a stronger applicant than before Democrats since he is from Berks County, whose voters helped give Gerlach edge in previous elections.
Gerlach, who lives in Chester County, discarded this theory and said that Trivedi is exterior the mainstream in the region.
"It is not geography, it is philosophy," said Gerlach Trivedi describes as a "far-left liberal candidate" would be a "stamp for Nancy Pelosi," U.S. House speaker.
Trivedi chuckled at Gerlach's "classic chat threads, said voters will not hear" random things about Pelosi and big administration. "
"He did not expect me. He has never seen the like of me," Trivedi said. "I am from this district. I was born and raised in this district. He is from western Pennsylvania, and he completed it clear when he ran for director last year."
