Pennsylvania’s primary election day is coming up next week and will feature one of the more interesting races as Democrats will choose between incumbent Rep. Summer Lee and challenger Bhavini Patel, an Edgewood councilwoman, in the battle for the District 12 seat in the U.S. House.

TribLive reporter Ryan Deto joins digital producer Zac Gibson to lay out the primary contest and walk through a profile of these two candidates.

Deto has followed the race since last year and has been a political reporter with TribLive since 2022.
