Washington D.C.: As the 2024 US presidential election reaches its final day, both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are pouring significant resources and focus into Pennsylvania, a swing state with a decisive 19 Electoral College votes. Both candidates view the state as key to clinching the presidency in a contest marked by unprecedented drama, including Trump’s two assassination attempts and Harris’s swift rise after Joe Biden withdrew under internal party pressure.

According to AdImpact, over $2.6 billion has been spent since March on campaign ads targeting undecided voters, yet recent polls show Trump, 78, and Harris, 60, locked in an extraordinarily tight race. The outcome in Pennsylvania is expected to be pivotal, with results potentially delayed for days, and Trump has already signaled his intent to challenge any unfavorable outcome.

Why Pennsylvania Holds the Key to the White House

Pennsylvania, part of the traditionally Democratic “blue wall” alongside Wisconsin and Michigan, is critical for Harris’s path to victory. It holds the largest electoral prize among battleground states, and the state’s 19 electoral votes are often seen as a tipping point in the Electoral College. In recent elections, it has swung narrowly, making it a focal point for both campaigns.

Past Presidential Results in Pennsylvania:

  • 2020: Joe Biden (D) defeated Donald Trump (R) by 1.16%.
  • 2016: Donald Trump (R) defeated Hillary Clinton (D) by 0.72%.
  • 2012: Barack Obama (D) defeated Mitt Romney (R) by 5.38%.

These slim margins underscore Pennsylvania’s unpredictable nature and importance in presidential races, further motivating Trump and Harris to secure every last vote here.

Trump’s Final Message to Pennsylvania Voters

In Pittsburgh, Trump rallied a large crowd with a focus on economic promises, asserting that Harris’s election would bring financial hardship to Americans. “We’re going to win Pennsylvania, and it’s going to be over,” he declared confidently. Trump also highlighted his endorsement from podcaster Joe Rogan, gaining support from conservative media figures.

Harris’s Outreach Efforts and Message of Unity

Kamala Harris’s last day of campaigning centered on inclusivity, particularly reaching out to Pennsylvania’s diverse communities. In Allentown, she pledged to serve as a president for “all Americans,” directly addressing the city’s large Puerto Rican community, angered by recent inflammatory comments made by a comedian at a Trump event. Harris’s final rally in Philadelphia featured performances by Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, and Oprah Winfrey, symbolizing her appeal to a broad demographic base.

Final Push for Votes

Both candidates have put considerable effort into engaging Pennsylvanian voters on the last day before the polls. Trump’s rally tour included stops in North Carolina and Michigan, while Harris concluded her Pennsylvania campaign with stops in Reading and Pittsburgh. The efforts by both campaigns underscore Pennsylvania’s unique role as a make-or-break state in the 2024 election.
