Primary race background

Main article: Pennsylvania races we're watching, 2016

Sims sent a fundraising e-mail to supporters stating, "I never expected to have this big of a target on my back," which went on to refer to "right-wing extremists" that were trying to "their anti-choice and anti-equality agenda through our State House." Sims received criticism from the fact check website PolitiFact Pennsylvania for his statement that "right-wing extremists are trying to take this [Sims'] seat" since no Republicans filed to run for the seat. The e-mail further stated that conservatives were trying to push "their anti-choice and anti-equality agenda through our State House."[6]

PolitiFact Pennsylvania, gave Sims' statement the website's lowest ranking for truthfulness, and found that none of Sims' Democratic opponents could be considered "right-wing extremists." Each of Sims' opponents expressed support for progressive causes such as gay rights, criminal justice reform, and women's rights. "I don’t think any of us are right-wing extremists," said Snyder. Waxman dismissed the e-mail as "ridiculous false attacks." Lanni called himself a moderate on his campaign's Facebook page.[6][7]

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Pennsylvania

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
