Democrats in Pennsylvania Had a Horrible 2024 Election. They Say It's Still a Swing State

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

39% : Many of those voters won't show up if Trump isn't on the ballot, the theory goes, leaving Pennsylvania's status as the ultimate swing state intact.
38% : Hopkins said Democrats should be worried that they lost young voters and Hispanic voters to Trump, although the swing toward the GOP was relatively muted in Pennsylvania.
35% : Ed Rendell, the former two-term governor of Pennsylvania and ex-Democratic National Committee chair, said Trump had the right message this year and that Harris didn't have enough time on the campaign trail to counter it.
29% : In Pennsylvania, finger-pointing erupted in the Democratic stronghold of Philadelphia -- where Trump significantly narrowed his 2020 deficit -- between the city's Democratic Party chair and a Harris campaign adviser.
