RE: If it lands in PA consider it remaining a red state for a long time...
I might be able to be a little optimistic about Pittsburgh but on second thought, with those liberal colleges surrounding that city, I changed my mind.
Philly is probably a lost cause.
The rest of PA are the ones that will counter the liberalism of these two biggies.
The demographics matter in this.
PA is one of those states losing population (and EVs). A look needs to happen as to from where that is happening.
I doubt Philly people are leaving their gov’t handouts to go somewhere else where the handouts are not known.
So the place for this plant is in coal country, to hold that sort of population and maybe attract more. At all costs, rural out-migration needs to be stopped.
We need to peel back our enthusiastic gushing and remember that win was only a few 10s of thousands of votes spread over 3 states. You can lose those votes as easily to out migration as to policy failure.
Pittsburgh is a very liberal city from what I've heard. Hopefully it goes to some place a little more red where they really need the jobs.
