Former Bucks County Controller Neale Dougherty has announced his run for state representative for the newly proposed 29th House District, a district he carried in his 2021 reelection campaign for controller 54.68% - 45.32% despite a historically strong Republican year.
Dougherty enters the race for the open seat with over $250,000 cash on hand.
Dougherty released the following statement upon the announcement of his campaign:
“ As a lifelong Bucks County resident I know first hand the values and priorities of families within the 29th district. As a former New Hope-Solebury School Board president, I fought to ensure our kids were provided a quality education that prepared them for success in every stage of life and as Bucks County controller I held local government accountable on behalf of the people of this community.”
