Trending searches: who is winning the election right now
you saw the polls over the weekend do you believe it's tied in Pennsylvania Selena I've been saying that since the con her during the middle of her convention that there wasn't this great surge in enthusiasm there was among Democrats who were unhappy about Biden but there wasn't anything moving or changing it was very much the same place where it was between Trump and Biden she did not change this event this election So Yesterday Raphael warock her her surrogate on Meet the Meet the Press gets asked about KL Harris's mandatory buyback of guns program from 2019 and he doesn't say oh no she's not for that anymore so I guess she is how's that fly in Pennsylvania we're going to make you give in your gun yeah probably not I mean this is the challenge right people do these great big you know like our our the Labor Day event that happened in Pittsburgh and it came across as though labor was behind her right and mass right all labor that's not true labor leadership may be but that event had people that were invite only from you know the the labor unions most of them or a lot of them were labor leaders there were some Rank and file there but Rank and file um labor laborers in Pennsylvania union members are almost always gun owners and and not only does it have to do with hunting but it also has to do with self- protection that does not fly with that voter at all and and so no that was the long answer to your question no gun me you know big gun control in the in in the form that waro was talking about about uh Harris's position is not popular at all among uh uh labor or a lot of Pennsylvania so for new listeners whether they're in Key West or any of my other news stations Selena wrote a book eight years ago that called it I called the Great Revolt uh and she was the only one who called Trump winning uh in Pennsylvania and and Selena lives in Pittsburgh and she's a dear friend uh she is a pittsburger so we we we call it the Ino report but you've got to listen now when she explains to you why as eie goes so goes the Country now I'm on in wils Bear and Scranton and Bedford and Philly and Pittsburgh but I'm really talking to talk Erie right now which is 103.3 105.5 and 1530 a.m. up there in Erie why does Erie matter so much explain it to the folks in Atlanta driving to work so Erie is was the home forever in a day of the New Deal the Coalition of Democrats if voted for a Democrat president for generations and that all changed in 2016 when the Coalition started to change where you saw the uh Republican party start to embrace and bring on the blue collar uh voter who either was a Democrat or an independent or middle the road Republican and in 2016 Trump I remember being up there in 2016 and coming home and and writing and saying uh he's GNA win eie and people had thought that I had lost my mind no Republican ever one eerie and and but he did he narrowly lost it in 2020 to Joe Biden Biden was able to pick off those working class voters but you go up to Erie right now and I it feels and the reporting is very similar to what I was experiencing in 2016 and I think that yeah as here he go I want to tell people Selen and I grew up we're about the same age and we grew up about 50 miles apart so I'm from Trumble County which is adjacent to Mahoning County which always voted blue and flipped red in 2016 ain't going back and I could drive seven miles in be in Erie Pennsylvania Erie County Pennsylvania so Selena if you had to bet your house who would you bet Pennsylvania goes to in November if the the elections were held today it's definitely true without without without a question in my mind it has nothing to do with liking him or not liking him it has everything to do with what I'm seeing on the ground and when you look around Pittsburgh are is the enthusiasm that allegedly Kare has generated anywhere evident no but as I was driving from I now don't live in the city of Pittsburgh I live in West Morland County every Sunday Sunday dinner at my parents house I drive through the city to get to my parents house and even of it you know you expect to see it in the rural and Suburban areas you see the Trump uh enthusiasm but even in the city of Pittsburgh I'm seeing all of these Trump signs in places and neighborhoods they should not and that tells me something the Coalition is expanding that I wrote about in the great Revolt as opposed toink
