Six swing states set to decide the 2024 US election

About 240 million people are eligible to vote in this year’s US election, but only a relatively small number of them are likely to settle the question of who becomes the next president.

Experts believe there are only a handful of states that could plausibly be won by either the Democratic candidate, probably Kamala Harris, or her Republican predecessor, Donald Trump.

Six of them - Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin - could hold the key to who will take the White House.

So both parties are campaigning intensively to win over undecided voters in these states.

Those 6 swing states are where the most Dem fraud happened during the 2020 election.

This constant screeming from the foreign banshee press is amusing.
Their concern seems to be that they are about to lose their honey hole.
Trump wins with about 300 EC votes.

Let me assure everyone that the fraud machine in Georgia is ready to rock and roll. May they all rot in Hell.

I think he wins VA and causes a real scare in NY. He might win NM as well.

That may be the only way Trump can win. The election is close enough so the Democrats can cheat in MI, PA and WI. That's enough to get to 270 (as long as they win the district in Omaha, NE).

I’d fly to one of those states, check into a hotel, and then wait for my marching orders provided the party provides me with a rental car to drive people to the polls. They’re not smart enough. I’m sure they could contract the job to uber. They won’t do that either. I’ll bet the rats will.

All the Dems need to do is cheat the core blue districts in each of those swing states and the Electors go to them, the rest of the state be damned.

Trump should make a quick trip to Alaska, speak in Juneau, Anchorage, and Fairbanks. That would likely seal the deal. Being from Alaska, I can’t remember presidential candidates ever coming to Alaska.

I don’t know about that. I have a strong inclination to believe that if Kamala makes it past the convention, she’s going to crash hard and an October stock market rout is going to make it even worse. I have a feeling that the DNC are going to get hit with karma hard.

Maybe. Things fell apart with Joe rather quickly in June. So it can happen with Kamala. But they did get away with the basement strategy in 2020. Will it work again?

English media articles on US election are laughably reductive and superficial. They are written to explain to space aliens what is happening in US elections. Rarely will we get any insights from them. Scandals are a different story.

Nope,no way will he take VA. Far,far too many people living within 25 miles of DC who have Federal jobs paying $125K a year.

Without doubt...I do not know the extent of fraud in the GA. 2020 presidential election. But if there was enough of it to put Biden's total at 2.4736M over Trump's 2.4618M, a libertarian vote of 62.229K for Trump would have still overcome it. I pray GA. Libertarians will see the importance of all Constitution lovers coming together this time.
