It's an election day for voters in a state House district in northeast Philadelphia.
Democrat Sarah Del Ricci and Republican Martina White are competing in a special election Tuesday to fill the seat in the 170th District.
Del Ricci heads a nonprofit that specializes in therapeutic horse riding for special-needs children and adults. White is a financial adviser.
The seat was formerly held by Democratic U.S. Rep. Brendan Boyle.
In November, Boyle was simultaneously re-elected to the state House and to a congressional seat vacated by Allyson Schwartz when she ran unsuccessfully for governor last year.
Boyle resigned from the Pennsylvania Legislature to enter Congress.
