With Donald Trump the projected winner of the 2024 presidential race in Pennsylvania, NBC10’s Matt DeLucia breaks down numbers in the Keystone State, while Brenna Weick speaks to voters Wednesday morning.
Republican Donald Trump has won the critical swing state of Pennsylvania and is on the verge of winning the presidency, NBC News projects.
Trump gained 19 electoral votes after winning the keystone state, putting his total projected electoral votes at 266, according to NBC News.
Pennsylvania, a part of the once-reliable Democratic stronghold known as the “blue wall” with Michigan and Wisconsin, was carried by Trump when he first won the White House in 2016 and then flipped back to Democrats in 2020. Trump also flipped Georgia, which had voted for Democrats four years ago, and retained the closely contested state of North Carolina.
A win in Alaska or any of the outstanding battleground states — Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona or Nevada — would send the Republican former president back to the Oval Office.
