The democrats started to panic not only about Minnesota, but also about Pennsylvania. Trump’s giant rallies in this state have done their job: rural voter mobilisation is well under way, and the Democrats’ advantage in early voting is rapidly shrinking.
Pennsylvania’s influential newspaper Pittsburg Post-Gazette supported the Republican in the presidential election for the first time in 50 years. The editorial team writes that Trump is not perfect, but he is much better than Biden, who only promises to crush the state’s oil industry.
Trump’s strategists also aim to win exactly in five states: Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Iowa. And in addition, take Nevada, where Trump lost four years ago. This way you get more than 290 votes from the electorate.
In 2016, an early vote in Nevada formed a so-called “big wall” of Hispanic voters who prevented Trump from winning in their state. But this year’s “Hispanics” are voting quite sluggishly – and this opens up a window of opportunity for Trump in Nevada.
In Georgia, Ohio and Wisconsin, Republicans are confident in voting early. In Michigan, Republicans have a small gap of 3%. In Florida and Arizona the Democrats are a couple of percent ahead. But their gap is greater in Nevada, at 3%, and in North Carolina, at 5%.
On the very day of the election on 3 November, a very “red” electorate will come to the polls – Republicans traditionally dominate in face-to-face voting. Therefore, they have every chance to make up for their current backlog in several states, including North Carolina, Pennsylvania or Iowa.
Early voting statistics run counter to polls by liberal sociologists – even though they may have already hedged election risks by reducing Biden’s advantage in key states to a sane 3% so as to put the blame on the “damn” state of error.
