By MARC LEVY Associated Press
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Pennsylvania is confirming another big increase in coronavirus cases as lawmakers are drafting legislation to delay the state’s April 28 primary election. Pennsylvania health officials on Sunday reported more than 100 new cases in Pennsylvania, for a total of more than 470. Two coronavirus deaths have been reported so far in the state. Meanwhile, the state House’s State Government Committee chairman says forthcoming legislation would delay Pennsylvania’s primary to June 2. Everett said he hopes to get the legislation out of his committee on Monday and through the Republican-controlled chamber this coming week, to send it to the Senate.
