Representative Matt Cartwright, a Democrat, has represented the Scranton-area for more than a decade, but it remains one of the true swing districts in the country.
An Erie native, Mr. Cartwright is the only member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus to carry a district won by former President Donald J. Trump.
He faces Rob Bresnahan Jr., whom Republicans believe has a solid chance to capture the seat.
