A Cranberry attorney will likely be the next State Representative for the 12th State House district.
Preliminary returns have Stephenie Scialabba defeating Democratic opponent Robert Vigue to represent an area including Adams, Cranberry, and Jackson Townships in Harrisburg.
Scialabba was able to secure nearly 62% of a total of just over 30,000 votes counted. All results are unofficial until approved by the Election Board.
Scialabba will replace longtime local Representative Daryl Metcalfe who is retiring.
