“Looking at the numbers, Biden has received about 250,000 more votes in the PA primary then Hillary did back in 2016. Running unopposed PDJT has received a little over 150k more votes this year then he did in the 2016 primary in PA. We should also remember that PDJT barely squeaked out a win in PA in 2016 running against a candidate, Hillary, who had very high negatives.”
Referring this to Freeper LS, from what I understand Republican voter registration is up substantially in PA compared to Democrats. If true, that would be of more significance than the primary vote totals.

I see an increase in R registration in mostly the more rural counties but the Ds have also increased their numbers in the populous counties of Philadelphia and Alleghaney where registered Ds already outnumber registered Rs by several hundred thousand. Ds have now surpassed Rs in Chester County.
Let’s clarify. GOP registration SINCE 2016 (and since 2012) REALATIVE to Ds is up about 85,000 net.
That is, since 2016, both parties lost #s (people dying, moving out) but the Rs have lost 85,000 fewer.
I am seeing stuff that the counties just outside the “suburban” counties near Philly are getting much redder. Places like Luzerne that were key to Trump’s victory.
Baris told me he think Trump wins PA unless the Ds get some mail in voting there.
Remember also, there was Dinobernie, and while 1/3 of them (it seems) will stay home, 2/3 will likely vote for Demented Perv Biteme.
Now, there is some evidence (see “Bellwether Blues,” for example) that Dinobernie voters in 2016 did vote Trump.
It also looks like there were no real primaries for republicans- only one candidate in each race.
