Post Rules

  • Posts must be explicitly related to Pennsylvanian politics. This includes the interaction of federal and state politics, as well as that state's congressional delegation. Local politics are permissible if they would reasonably be of interest to a statewide audience.

  • Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site's, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive.

  • Avoid blogs, campaign materials, or overly partisan sources. Always try to find an article from a reputable and/or mainstream source. Candidate endorsements and direct campaigning are acceptable.

  • Links to news articles and videos must contain a comment explaining how it is relevant and why you are posting it

Comment Guidelines

  • Be civil.

  • No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments.

  • Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This subreddit aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

  • No hate speech, slurs, or abusive language. This will result in a ban.

Undecided in Pennsylvania?

Hi y'all! A Finn here, trying to better understand the US political landscape.

ABC News recently reported that PA is the tipping point of this election in nearly 1 in 5 simulations. Simultaneously 538 puts Harris ahead by a razor thin margin, 0.8 percentage points.

Those of you who haven't made up your minds yet, I'd love to hear from you!

What are the key issues that you are still considering? Is your decision on who to vote for or rather whether to vote at all? What kind of an event would push you to make a decision?

For full transparency, I am a journalist and I cover the US election for the Finnish audience. However, my main goal with this post isn't to find interviewees (if it happens, it's a plus) but just better understand the situation on the ground.

Thanks a ton in advance!

Who else finds it odd that a CONVICTED FELON and serial BANKRUPTCY FILER has commercials...

Which say that the CONVICTED FELON will be better on crime than the former Attorney General.

Which say that a failure who has filed for BANKRUPTCY more times than he's run for POTUS would be better for the economy than someone who hasn't filed for bankruptcy.

I find it ODD that people believe dumb*** lies.

Anyone else?

It's clear that the moderators of this community are partisan blue. Don't worry I'll stay in my lane. No challenging the narrative here.

Cornel West 2024 - Ballot Access - Help Place Cornel West on the Ballot in Pa!

Cornel West is already on the Ballot in 40 states and he needs our help to qualify in Pennsylvania!

Quote from Cornel today:

“While we’ve made great strides, with Dr. West and Dr. Abdullah now officially on the Louisiana ballot and eligible for 493 electoral votes, we face unprecedented challenges. No other presidential campaign in U.S. history has encountered as many hurdles to ballot access as ours.

This demonstrates how vital your support is as we turn our focus to securing a place on the ballot in Pennsylvania, a critical battleground state.”

When do ballots get mailed out?

I've read they can go out 50 days before election, which is Tuesday. Are ballots actually going to be mailed so early?
