The balance of power in the Pennsylvania House has been teetering since January when the current session began.

Currently, the House is made up of 101 Republicans and 101 Democrats, but a special election on Tuesday, Sept. 19, in the heavily Democratic District 21 is expected to put Democrats in the majority again, according to conversations with Harrisburg lawmakers from both parties.
