In 2012, the D candidate for President won by 309,840 votes among approximately 5.7 million cast.
The swing towards R in voter registration through yesterday (registration ends today at 4pm EDT when government offices close) has been +232,156 since 4 years ago. There is definitely still a chance for PA to flip to R this election cycle; especially with the bad behavior of D elected officials in the State since the 2014 election still fresh in voters minds.
New GOPers + Blue collar white Dems + a peel-off of blacks = Trump win
What happened to the rumored 800,000 new Republican registrations in PA as touted by the so-called “Trumpocrats” recently?
The problem is Trump has to win by 5% to win by a hair with voter fraud in PA.
The real hope is that black enthusiasm for HRC might be low enough to even impede cheating to some degree...but they’ll still manufacture votes in Philly.
What is the population of Philadelphia...and how many registered voters are there in the city?
Thanks for the update. An important story is breaking that could change the Black vote dramatically. Bill Clinton is not recognizing his Sin Danny born of Bill’s black Prostitute. There is no doubt about Danny. Bill is ignoring him and so is Hillary. Bill owed 18 years of back child support so hopes this goes away but I see it as over racism . Why is bill ‘Dissing” his black son? Danny has DNA he will share with Bill but there is no doubt. There was a test but investigators confirmed no test was ever done !!( because it is ,of course, a positive match) . I think Danny is being publicly interviewed today! I don’t think Black voters like disrespect for this young man by his Dad. Google “Danny Williams”. Judge for yourself. Would Bill step up if Danny was white?
Romney won PA’s independents by 5% in 2012. If Trump ups that margin to 10% and the African-American turnout decreases because Obama isn’t on the ballot, PA could definitely flip.
Iowa, Ohio, North Carolina, Florida and PA for the win!
