The Future of Pennsylvania

As we all know, Pennsylvania is one of the key swing states that has the power to sway the upcoming presidential election in November. But what many people may not realize is that the destiny of Pennsylvania also rests in the hands of the voters during the primary election.

Primary Election and Why it Matters

The primary election is where each political party chooses their representative for the general election. This means that the candidates who win in the primary election will be the ones who represent their respective parties in the race for the presidency of the United States.

Impact of Your Vote

Many people believe that their vote does not matter or that they can make their opinion heard in other ways such as through social media. However, your vote is crucial to shaping the future of our country and your state. Each vote counts and can make a big difference in choosing who will lead us forward.

Voting Safety During COVID-19

In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many states are implementing mail-in voting so that voters can cast their ballots safely and securely from home. In Pennsylvania, voters can apply for a mail-in ballot up until May 26th, so it is important to act soon if you wish to do so.

The Importance of Educating Yourself Before Casting a Vote

It's not just about going to the polls or filling out a mail-in ballot. It’s even more about educating yourself on the candidates, their policies and positions, and the outcomes you'd like to see for Pennsylvania.

Issues at Stake in Pennsylvania

Some of the key issues that Pennsylvania voters are likely to care about include healthcare, the economy, national security, education, infrastructure projects, climate change, and immigration as well as criminal justice and police reform. It's important to choose a candidate whose stance aligns closely with your views on these and other important issues.

Bob Casey Jr. on Pennsylvania's Role this Year

As Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey Jr. said in a recent interview with CNN: You want to appeal to Pennsylvania? Start acting more like Joe Biden, because he walks and talks and lives Pennsylvania every day. And I think that's going to be a really powerful message going forward.
