Back in the '90s is when it finally "broke" with the election of Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky for the-then 13th Congressional District seat and ever since, it has gotten bluer and bluer and bluer until finally in 2011, Democrats took majority control of the County Commissioners Office with 2(D)s and 1(R), where that (D) pair was our current governor Josh Shapiro and current head of the PA Department of Human Services, Dr. Val Arkoosh!

The "purple on a really good day" County is Bucks.
