U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-1st District) was elected to a fifth term in Congress, according to unofficial results, defeating Democrat Ashley Ehasz for the second consecutive election.

Fitzpatrick's victory in suburban Philadelphia could help Republicans maintain a majority in the U.S. House. He's the only Republican member of the state's Congressional delegation to represent a district that Democrat Joe Biden won in 2020 over Donald Trump.

As he has in previous campaigns, Fitzpatrick kept his distance from Trump, who is once again the Republican Party's candidate for president and didn't announce who he was supporting for president during the campaign. The Associated Press called the race for Fitzpatrick at 1:23 a.m.

Fitzpatrick outraised Ehasz for most of the campaign, although the Democrat raised more than the incumbent in Q3. National ratings outlets ahead of the election rated the race as "Likely Republican."
