Top political analysts in Pennsylvania say the state is in the midst of a major demographic and electoral shift, which is likely to prove beneficial for the GOP. According to the latest figures coming out of the commonwealth, Republicans gained more than 10,000 new registrants in the last two months.

"Republicans have been gaining on the Democrats in Pennsylvania for a number of years, and the gap right now is very narrow," Gerow said, noting how Democrats once outnumbered Republicans by 1 million in the commonwealth. When asked about recent Republican losses in light of Democrats' declining registration advantage, Gerow said campaigns and registration figures have their differences.

"I have good news for the folks wringing their hands [about the Democrats' recent successes]. [With] Donald Trump and David McCormick, Republicans are going to have a lot to celebrate."

Gerow predicts McCormick will defeat Sen. Bob Casey Jr., D-Pa., who observers said in 2012 was helped into office by the name recognition and aisle-crossing popularity of his late father, former Gov. Robert P. Casey, the pro-life Democratic namesake of the landmark "Planned Parenthood v. Casey" case.

The article doesn’t mention people like Scott Presler and others who are putting a lot of effort into registering Republican voters.
