Pennsylvania's Pivotal Role in the 2024 Election
TL;DR Summary
The 2024 presidential election hinges on Pennsylvania's 19 electoral votes, with both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump needing a win in the state to bolster their paths to the White House. Harris must secure Pennsylvania or win a combination of other key states, while Trump needs Pennsylvania or a mix of Midwestern and Sunbelt states. The state, historically Democratic, flipped to Trump in 2016 but returned to Biden in 2020. The outcome may again depend on white working-class voters and urban turnout.
