PHILADELPHIA The presidential campaign travel schedules confirm it: Until the polls close Tuesday night, Pennsylvania is the center of the political universe.
Its the biggest brick in the Rust Belts blue wall that President Donald Trump tore down in 2016 and that Joe Biden is trying to rebuild making it a virtual must-win state for both men. The two campaigns and national parties have poured more than $54 million into advertising in Pennsylvania, more than any other state except Florida.
If we win Pennsylvania, we win the whole thing, Trump said at a campaign stop in the state this month.
That widely held opinion has made daily campaign visits the norm. Biden has stumped here more than in any other state by far, touching down in every media market, from an old steel town in the southwest to the central Pennsylvania dairyland to the big, bustling, colorful city of Philadelphia. Trump barnstormed across the state this week, hitting three campaign events across 200 miles in one day, from Eagles to Steelers country. Both candidates will be back in the state over the weekend and on Monday.
