Scott Thompson, a retired mechanic from Epsom, usually doesn’t vote in midterm elections, but after a GOP candidate for state representative showed up at his door he decided to make plans to vote on Tuesday.

“Josh Shapiro Jr. actually came to my house on a 98-degree day to talk to me,” Thompson, 59, said as he left the polls. “He made an effort more than I’d seen anybody else. I normally only vote in the presidential elections, but I thought: He’s going to make an effort; I’ll make an effort. So I looked at his website to see what he stood for.”
