Issue evidence — side by side

Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.

Research notes & limits

Incumbent Dwight Evans lost the Democratic primary and is not on the November ballot. No Republican candidate filed for this district. Mahoney has no discoverable campaign website, biography, or issue positions; researched as minimal. Rabb's sponsored-legislation list (via BillTrack50 on his Ballotpedia page) could not be extracted from the fetched page content, so record items are limited to documented committee roles. Campaign website mahoneyforcongress.com found (five platform pillars); summary and website updated. Incumbent Dwight Evans retired and is not on the November ballot. Mahoney's biography comes from his Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey and a Philadelphia Inquirer profile; no campaign website was loaded. Rabb's birthplace and Mahoney's education were not found in the sources reviewed.
