3. PA will go Dem next year

Thu Feb 28, 2019, 12:12 PM

Feb 2019

I live in Pennsylvania and I don't consider us a tossup. Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and the Harrisburg-Happy Valley corridor are all heavy blue and that's generally enough to swing the entire state. What we need in PA and we're about to get are brand-new unhackable voting machines, so the problems of 2016 will never recur. Still, I wish we could revert to paper ballots but the governor has a different idea.

If Joe Biden is the candidate, Pennsylvania will go blue for sure. But even if Biden isn't our candidate, I believe we'll turn the state blue.
