LOWER MACUNGIE TOWNSHIP, Pa. —Every four years, Pennsylvania plays a critical role in deciding who sits in the Oval Office. This year, in the same diners, farm fields, suburbs and union halls and on the same front porches, the state may also decide who runs the House of Representatives.
Pennsylvania is home to four congressional districts drawn so tightly a stiff wind could flip them, and they could determine whether Republicans keep their slim majority or hand the gavel to Democrats. wapo.st/4srrKj0

A survey of 1,607 likely voters across the Commonwealth showed Democrats holding leads in three of the four key congressional races across the state, while the fourth race is a statistical deadlock.” #PoliticsPA politicspa.com/new-poll-prov…
... in three of the four key congressional races across the state, while the fourth race is a statistical deadlock.
Yet, when the margin of sampling error of +/-5.7 to 5.8 percentage points is factored in, the races remain neck-and-neck. #PoliticsPA

NEW: We asked readers if they've been drowning in political texts, calls, mailers and TV ads, and to share pics of what they're getting.

NEWS: The @PhillyInquirer Editorial Board Endorses Gov. Shapiro
“Shapiro prides himself on getting stuff done. But what truly sets him apart are his commonsense policies, willingness to stand up for what is right, and ability to work across the aisle.”

If there are any Political Science PhD candidates out there that haven’t yet decided what they want to write their dissertation on, I would highly recommend trying to figure out some sort of replicable method for determining the tipping point for when a state reaches a level of political ad saturation (in terms of diminishing returns).
Like in Texas, it feels like we reached that point a few weeks ago (at least) but that’s mostly just based on gut and vibes and limited poll movement.
“Yass sent $17.5 million to School Freedom Fund, $16.5 million to Club for Growth Action, $16 million to MAGA Inc., and $12.5 million to Protect Freedom PAC. School Freedom Fund has spent millions in federal and state contests in Texas, Tennessee and other states.”
Jeff Yass nears $110M in midterm giving, with $30M behind Ramaswamy

“Congressman Lloyd Smucker and Democratic opponent Nancy Mannion were largely respectful during their first and only scheduled debate Friday afternoon, less than two weeks before the Nov. 3 election.” #PoliticsPA #PA11
