Kamala Harris is sweating bullets after seeing this trend in a key swing state

Election day is less than a month away.

All eyes are on a handful of swing states that will decide our next President.

And Kamala Harris is sweating bullets after seeing this trend in a key swing state.

Republican registration surges

Pennsylvania could very well decide who the next President will be.

Many Pennsylvanians will be voting for the first time this November.

And this recent trend isn’t looking good for Kamala Harris.

In September over 125,000 Pennsylvanians registered to vote.

And Republican registration was nearly double that of Democrat registration.

Over 60,000 registered as Republican, compared to less than 36,000 Democrat, with 32,000 registering as unaffiliated.

That trend continued into the first week of October with nearly 16,000 new Republican registrations compared to 8,000 Democrat registrations.

Trump is leading the polls in Erie and Northampton counties.

The winner of those two counties carried the state in every Presidential election since 2008.

Trump gaining ground throughout the state

But it isn’t just rural Pennsylvania counties that Trump is surging in.

Trump seems to be making some inroads in Democrat stronghold Philadelphia, where 20% of the state’s registered Democrats live.

Biden performed worse in Philadelphia in 2020 than Clinton did four years prior, and many of the city’s working-class residents have expressed frustration with the Democrat party.

“When Trump was president, everything was cheaper,” he said. “Now, everything is so sky high,” John Kohn, a retired union truck driver and registered Democrat, told the New York Post.

While Democrats currently outnumber Republicans 7 to 1 in the city, Republicans have been winning the registration game there as well.

In 2023, Republicans gained 10,300 registrants in Philadelphia, while Democrats gained about 9,800.

Charlie O’Connor, a GOP leader in the 45th ward, has been working on registrations, and noted that many former Democrats in the city have registered Republican.

“The question you ask at the door — doesn’t matter, Black, white — is: are you better off than you were four years ago?” O’Connor told the Philadelphia Inquirer. “That’s the universal message. And people aren’t.”

As RedState contributor Bonchie explained, Pennsylvania is incredibly important to this election.

“Whoever wins Pennsylvania is almost certainly going to win the election. Yes, analysts can play with the map, shuffling out this state for that state, but if a nominee doesn’t win The Keystone State, they probably lost Michigan and Wisconsin as well. That is why the Trump campaign and its surrounding PACs have spent far more in Pennsylvania than any other state,” Bonchie wrote.

Some of the gains in GOP registration can be attributed to conservative activist Scott Presler who has been running a registration drive in the state.

Presler noted that he found it suspicious that the state registration website was down for maintenance at the exact time Trump was holding a rally in the state.

Pennsylvania voters can register online and have until October 21 to do so.

Working-class voters in states like Pennsylvania have seen how bad the Biden-Harris administration has been for them.

And Harris may just pay the price for it this November.
