Democrats are hoping that disaffected Republicans, suburban women and Black and Latino voters will help them clinch Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes and avoid a sequel to Donald Trump’s unexpected victory there in 2016.
Pennsylvania epitomizes the divisions, loyalties and shifting political currents of the 2020 presidential race. The mostly white battleground state, where four years ago President Trump narrowly became the first Republican to win a presidential contest since 1988, is once again balanced between staunch Republican loyalty in its rural center and a resurgent Democratic Party in its urban and suburban areas.
