What To Know About the PA Governor’s Race

from City Cast Pittsburgh · host City Cast

May 4 is the deadline to register to vote in Pennsylvania's 2026 primary election. Register to vote, check your status, and find your polling place on Allegheny County's website so you're all set for the primaries on May 19. We're kicking off our election coverage with the biggest race at the state level: the governor's seat. Incumbent Democrat Josh Shapiro's facing off against Republican challenger Stacy Garrity, who currently serves as the state treasurer. Host Megan Harris is with Spotlight PA Capitol reporter Stephen Caruso, who's giving us each candidate's highlight reel and telling us whether Shapiro can make good on his promise to GSD if he wins reelection — and if the state Senate flips in favor of Democrats.
