According to The Politico, a historic spike in Democratic voter registrations in Pennsylvania could help Barack Obama cut into Hillary Clinton’s vote in Tuesday’s primary, robbing her of the big victory margin she needs to justify continuing the primary fight. A county-by-county analysis by Politico suggests that the hard-fought primary between Obama and Clinton has accelerated an ongoing partisan shift in Pennsylvania that could soon move it out of the battleground presidential states, and ripple across congressional races this fall, as well.
Pennsylvania will mark a huge turning point for the Clinton and Obama. Pennsylvania is a state that seems to have a conservative and centrist population for the most part. For this state, Clinton seems to be the better Democratic fit as opposed to Obama, because of where she stands on certain issues. It will be interesting to see what happens here, because as this election has proven, anything can happen. But everyone, whether republican, democrat, conservative, or liberal, must be aware of the fact that voter participation is up now more than ever before, and this is also marking a turning point in our county’s political history. Hopefully Clinton will prevail and defy the odds this Tuesday!
