As Pennsylvanians prepared to cast their votes in the state’s closely watched gubernatorial and U.S. Senate elections, voters and political leaders across the aisle expressed concern about the state of democracy.
With just hours remaining in their midterm election campaigns, Pennsylvania’s leading Senate and gubernatorial candidates are traveling across the Commonwealth in a last-ditch effort to reach voters.
President Joe Biden and former president Barack Obama took center stage in Philadelphia on Saturday to encourage voters to turn out for the tight U.S. Senate race and an election for governor on Tuesday.
Update: Henrico County is one of a handful of areas Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin did not win on Tuesday. Voters chose Democrat Terry McAuliffe by a margin of 58% to 41%.
As Election Day approaches, Democrats are campaigning hard in the suburbs. With the race tightening, both parties are hoping that the suburbs will carry them to victory.
Democratic canvassers are motivated to get McAuliffe back into the governor’s mansion, mobilizing voters on key issues – voter rights, women’s rights, and COVID-19.
In the home stretch of a highly contested and nationalized race, Democrat Terry McAuliffe and Republican Glenn Youngkin are seeking to rally voters in Richmond around one re-emerging issue: education.
