I just finished a comparison between 2016 and the June 2020 Pennsylvania voter registration numbers.

Here is what I find interesting.

In 60 of the 67 counties Democrat registration declined while in 15 of the 67 counties Republican registration increased.

However, in these five counties Democrat registration increased and Republican registration dropped. Why did such an oddity happen?
Bucks
Chester
Delaware
Lancaster
Montgomery

I know that PA cleaned up their voter registration rolls in 2018 and that would explain why the total statewide registration dropped 123,683. But in four years to see Democrat registration go up in these five counties and Republican registration go down is hard to understand.

What are the FReeper insights?

How is it that democrats ran all these polling places and only republicans were prevented from coming inside?

There is not one instance of that happening to a Democrat.

Great work

I made a big mistake in my earlier posting-—

The sentence should read “while in 52 of the 67 counties Republican registration increased.”
