Result
State Rep. Jamie Flick (R-PA) won reelection to Pennsylvania State House District 83 in the Nov. 3 general election, running unopposed and retaining the seat he has held since 2022. For voters in the district, the result keeps the same lawmaker in office.
Candidates and platforms
Flick's campaign website says he will focus on lowering taxes and creating better jobs. Its issues page points to Pennsylvania's gas tax and its small-business and corporate tax rates, which the campaign describes as among the nation's highest.
On education, the same page says Flick supports reform and argues that more taxpayer funding is not always the answer. It describes volunteers who help teach children material not covered in class. The page also says he supports campaign finance reform, transparency, and addressing corruption in Harrisburg.
Flick's state office says he is fighting for a balanced state budget, economic growth, Pennsylvania energy production, and limits on state government spending. In a separate office release, he called for energy policy that makes energy affordable and reliable and encourages investment in Pennsylvania.
In a 2021 campaign announcement for the seat, Flick pledged to lower taxes, reform lawmakers' pensions and education, push for term limits, increase transparency and address corruption.
District and chamber
Pennsylvania House District 83 includes portions of Lycoming and Union counties. Flick was first elected in 2022 and reelected in 2024. His latest victory secures another two-year term in the Pennsylvania House.
Flick serves on the House Children and Youth, Environmental and Natural Resource Protection, Human Services, and Tourism, Recreation and Economic Development committees. He is also the Republican chair of the Human Services Committee's Subcommittee on Drugs and Alcohol.
Democrats are projected to expand their majority in the 203-member Pennsylvania House following the Nov. 3 election. Unofficial results show Democrats winning or leading in 114 districts and Republicans in 89, compared with a 103-100 Democratic majority before the election. Flick's victory preserves one of the Republican-held seats.
