Bernstine seeking another term in slightly altered district
The district numbers may change, but state Rep. Aaron Bernstine, R-10th, promises his style won’t as he enters his bid for re-election into a redistricted seat.
Bernstine is vying for House 8th Legislative District seat in the upcoming election. As it is currently, the district is represented by Rep. Tim Bonner, a Grove City resident. Grove City is to become part of the 17th District.
Based on the latest redistricting map, the 8th District will look different and include Butler County municipalities of Brady, Center, Clay, Connoquenessing, Forward, Franklin, Lancaster, Middlesex, Muddycreek, Penn and Worth townships; and Connoquenessing, Portersville, Prospect, West Liberty and West Sunbury boroughs.
The district also includes about one-third of Lawrence county, including New Galilee, where Bernstine, his wife, Ilia, and son, Dierks, call home. Bernstine is also a small business owner and farmer.
