Citizenship Test in Pennsylvania
Most of the 128 civics questions have the same answer everywhere, but three depend on where you live: your state capital, your governor, and your U.S. senators. Here are Pennsylvania's, alongside the rest of the test so you can study it all in one calm place.
The answers that depend on Pennsylvania
