Casey 0%
Specter 25%

Pitts 100%
Peterson, J. 78%
Shuster 67%
Dent 44%
Platts 44%
Murphy, T. 33%

In related news, Sen. Specter (who is considered to be a pivotal vote) now says he is undecided (HT GrassrootsPA) on the "card check legislation", which would effectively eliminate the secret ballot in union certification votes.
