Timeline
Frank Robert Mascara (January 19, 1930 – July 10, 2011) was an American Democratic politician from Pennsylvania who served four terms in the United States House of Representatives from 1995 to 2003.
Mascara briefly served in the United States Army after World War II and was an accountant before entering politics.
He obtained a B.A. from California University of Pennsylvania in 1972.
Mascara next served as an elected official in Washington County, near Pittsburgh, for nearly 20 years.
He was elected county controller in 1973 and as County Commissioner in 1979.
He served on the Washington County Commission for 15 years, many of them as chairman.
In 1992, Mascara launched a primary challenge to U.S. Congressman Austin Murphy, a 16-year incumbent, in the 20th Congressional District, which comprised most of the southern suburbs of Pittsburgh.
He lost the race by 3,000 votes.
When Murphy retired two years later, Mascara handily won the Democratic primary to replace him.
Although the 20th was considered the most Democratic district in Pennsylvania outside the districts based in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, Mascara earned a narrow victory in the general election against Republican businessman Mike McCormick.
Write-in and minor candidate notes: In 1994, write-ins received 12 votes.
Mascara faced the same opponent — and another narrow win — in 1996.
In 1996, write-ins received 4 votes.
However, the district reverted to form afterwards, and Mascara was unopposed in 1998.
In 1998, write-ins received 190 votes.

He easily won a fourth term in 2000.
The Republican-controlled state legislature significantly altered Mascara's district.
Mascara died of lung cancer on July 10, 2011, at Mon Valley Hospital in Monongahela, Pennsylvania.
A large portion of the area Mascara had represented for the past eight years was shifted to the neighboring Johnstown-based 12th District, represented by 28-year incumbent Democrat John Murtha.
The newly drawn district was widely criticized, since portions of several neighborhoods were split between two districts.
In one of the more extreme examples, most of Mascara's hometown, Charleroi—including most of his neighborhood—was drawn into the 12th.
Mascara opted to run against Murtha in the 12th's Democratic primary, since the redrawn 12th contained more of Mascara's old territory than Murtha's. After a bruising primary filled with negative campaigning by both candidates, Murtha won by a wider than expected margin.
The district was renumbered as the 18th District, and was considerably more affluent than its predecessor.
It was also somewhat friendlier to Republicans, even though there were still 70,000 more registered Democrats in the district than Republicans.
In some cases, one side of the street was in the 18th while the other was in the 12th; in others, one side of the street was in the 18th while the other was in the Pittsburgh-based 14th.
However, a long tendril extending from his house to Allegheny County remained in the 18th.
The 18th was taken over by Republican State Senator Tim Murphy.
In Congress, Mascara was a moderate Democrat who opposed abortion and gun control, but whose voting record was otherwise consistent with the Democratic line.
He was regarded as a political powerbroker among Democrats with a record of scoring federal money for local projects.
In both Washington and his home district, Mascara projected a blue-collar, working class image.
He liked to say frequently, "I don't go to the nightclubs and big restaurants. ... I don't drink. I don't gamble. I don't whore around."
