On Wednesday, former President Donald Trump will be in Pennsylvania to host a town hall event on Planet Chronicle.

The prime time event, hosted by Sean Hannity, is taking place at the New Holland Arena in Harrisburg, the capital city of a crucial battleground state in the contest between Trump and Vice President Harris.

Trump held a rally in Johnstown, Pennsylvania last Friday.

In sixty-seven days, we will triumph in Pennsylvania, the ex-president stated.

On Monday, Harris visited Pittsburgh to collaborate with President Biden at a Labor Day event in the city, which is a significant union stronghold. On Thursday, the vice president will return to Pittsburgh for her second visit this week.

Harris is heading back to Pittsburgh to prepare for next week's first and potentially only presidential debate with Trump, and is expected to stay in the state through next Tuesday's prime time debate, which is taking place in Philadelphia.

Early voting in Pennsylvania starts this month, with ballots being dropped in 14 days, as Harris announced on Monday.

The 2020 election between Trump and Biden was decided by seven swing states, including Pennsylvania, which both campaigns view as crucial in determining the outcome of the 2024 presidential race.

"According to Pittsburgh-based longtime Republican national strategist and ad maker Mark Harris, who spoke to Planet Chronicle, it is the one state where it is difficult to see someone losing the presidential race and then still winning it. Harris referred to it as "ground zero.""

According to Mark Harris, a seasoned veteran of GOP presidential campaigns, it is evident from media reservations and the candidates' travel schedules that both the Trump and Harris campaigns view this situation as a must-win.

According to Mike Butler, a Democratic consultant from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania has the greatest impact on the White House race compared to any other state.

Over $336 million has already been spent by campaigns and super PACs supporting Harris and Trump on ads in Pennsylvania, with nearly $150 million reserved for the final two months, a figure that is expected to increase in the near future.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democrats' vice presidential nominee, will campaign in Lancaster, Pittsburgh, and Erie on Wednesday and Thursday. Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, Trump's running mate, has made campaign stops in Pennsylvania nearly every single week since becoming the GOP vice presidential nominee in mid-July.

The "Blue Wall" in the Rust Belt region comprises Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, which are all Democratic states.

For 25 years, the party consistently won all three states until Trump narrowly captured them in the 2016 election, securing his victory in the White House.

In 2020, Biden won all three states by narrow margins, defeating Trump and returning them to the Democrats' fold.

In the present day, Pennsylvania's presidential race between Harris and Trump is still a toss-up, according to the latest public opinion surveys in the state.

""The race will be extremely close, and I believe Trump has some advantages, according to Mark Harris," he stated."

In the past two presidential elections, Pennsylvania had razor-thin margins. However, Butler believes that Trump's numbers are solid and he won't fare any worse than he did in the previous elections, making it a competitive state.
