LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. — In the wake of Representative Michael Sturla's decision not to seek reelection, the Lancaster County Democratic Committee has made a recommendation for his replacement on the ballot.

Rivera also reportedly received the endorsement vote from the Pennsylvania Democratic State Executive Committee, also unanimously. 

Rivera will appear on the November ballot, according to O'Brien.
