New National Journal Ratings of Notable Pa. Representatives
A new list released by the National Journal rates House members based on how liberal or conservative their votes in 2011 were on economic, social, and foreign issues, as compared to other members of the House. The list also gives a composite score of all issues, and ranks each member on a list of most liberal and most conservative. These numbers could have an effect on the upcoming election, especially those in which incumbents are facing primary challenges.
