2023 In Review: 2023 was a transformational year for the Pennsylvania Forward Party. We endorsed 9 candidates in the November elections, and 3 of those were successfully elected: Seth Bluestein <[link removed]> (Philadelphia City Commissioner), Chris Woodward <[link removed]> (Lower Heidelberg Township Auditor), and Steve Zappala <[link removed]> (Allegheny District Attorney). Check out more in-depth coverage of the elections in the links above!



In May 2023, leaders of the Pennsylvania Forward Party met in Gettysburg <[link removed]> to adopt party bylaws, vote in leadership, and plan for the future.  Pennsylvania was also selected as one of 12 Battleground States by the national branch of the Forward Party.



July & August were crucial months for the Pennsylvania Forward Party. Riding the momentum of the 2023 May summit, Forwardists gathered in Philadelphia to celebrate City Commissioner Seth Bluestein as he became a Forward Party affiliate <[link removed]>, joining a growing trend across the nation. We also announced our affiliation with Stephen Zappala in his re-election bid for District Attorney of Allegheny County <[link removed]>.



October was a month of exciting endorsements. See the full list of our endorsed candidates <[link removed]> here!



Pennsylvania Forward participated in the November elections. The election results here <[link removed]>! We put three Forwardists in office, making five across the state.



Over the holiday season, we released our 7 statewide priorities <[link removed]>, which set forth our vision for a better Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania Forward was also hosted  by the Philadelphia World Affairs Council in December.

Looking Forward to 2024. This upcoming year presents an opportunity to be recognized as an official party in Pennsylvania—one of our main goals for the year. You can read below that Forward Utah has become a recognized party in Utah by gathering signatures. In PA, it's a little different. 



To be a recognized minor party in Pennsylvania, we need to run a candidate in a statewide race. Finding the right candidate to run for Attorney General, Auditor General, or Treasurer under our banner will be the goal for the next few months.



Here are our other goals for 2024:



- We will run a Statewide Candidate who wins 2% of the statewide total & wins 2% of the total in ten counties.

- We will run several State House Candidates in the hopes of winning enough to prevent either of the major parties from achieving a majority.

- We will build our volunteer base across the Commonwealth.

- We will identify & develop leaders at the Regional & County levels.

- We will dramatically increase the number of monthly donors even if the pledge $3.00 for a third party.



The Pennsylvania Forward Party needs you. We are looking for candidates to run under or with the Forward Party in 2024. Don't want to run as a candidate?
