A well-funded Pennsylvania Democrat with deep establishment support withdrew from the state district’s Democratic primary Tuesday, after reports that she was going to face a challenge to her eligibility to appear on the ballot. Christina Hartman was running in Pennsylvania’s 10th Congressional District. A separate forthcoming challenge was also going to call into question the ballot signatures, as well as the veracity of an affidavit saying Hartman lived in the district, according to a Pennsylvania Democrat familiar with the challenge. Hartman had raised over $350,000 for a run in the neighboring 11th Congressional District, which includes Lancaster. “When the new districts were announced, I had to make a quick and difficult decision to continue my campaign in a new district,” Hartman said in a statement.
