Donald Trump Gets Bad News From Two Early Voting Trends in Pennsylvania

Source: Newsweek

Early Pennsylvania voting data has highlighted two potentially worrying trends for Donald Trump's hopes of beating Vice President Kamala Harris in the crucial battleground state, according to analysis.

The former president is faced with a couple of potential warning signs as data from Pennsylvania shows more women have voted early than men in the 2024 election, and registered Democrats aged over 65 have so far also outvoted Republicans of the same age group, Politico reported this week.

It is unclear who these Pennsylvanians voted for, but seniors in the state have generally been a reliably Republican constituency and the Harris campaign has made it a priority to appeal to women, through issues like abortion. Republicans do tend to cast their votes more on Election Day, rather than with mail-in or early voting.

Harris' clearest path to victory in November would be to win the three blue-wall battleground states of Pennsylvania, with its 19 Electoral College votes, Michigan and Wisconsin, barring any shock results elsewhere. Trump's most efficient route to 270 electoral votes would involve winning Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina.
