“In a race where only a few states are up for grabs, Pennsylvania may determine the fate of the 2024 election. Polls suggest that former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are virtually tied in a fight for the state’s 19 delegates. Both Democrats and Republicans are pouring millions into messaging through advertisements, town halls, and large rallies. Last night in Pittsburgh, Harris’s most powerful surrogate, former President Barack Obama, delivered his first major campaign address of the season, just 24 hours after Trump held two Pennsylvania events in one day. Their rhetorical styles couldn’t be more different. But each former president landed on a similar, aggressive line of attack: They don’t care about you.” (10/11/24)
