BENSALEM TOWNSHIP, PA — The votes are coming in the race in the 18th Legislative District race between incumbent Republican Kathleen "K.C" Tomlinson and Democratic challenger Bryan Allen.
These are the election results so far:
The two candidates have battled over state education and have discussed the future development of the Neshaminy Mall.
Tomlinson is trying to hold off a swarm by Democrats over the past year, which has seen the school board and council go in favor of the party.
The 38-year-old Tomlinson has served as a state representative for several terms with her father Tommy Tomlinson once filling the position.
Allen, 48, has served as a Bensalem Township councilman and was also the former Chief of Staff to State Rep. Tina Davis.
Election results are unofficial until certified by the Bucks County Board of Elections.
The 18th Legislative District includes Bensalem Township and Hulmeville Borough.
