Articles on it from three weeks back:

https://www.spotlightpa.org/news/2024/09/pennsylvania-voter-registration-2024-election-democrat-republican-independent-harris-trump/

https://www.phillyburbs.com/story/news/politics/elections/state/2024/09/19/pa-voter-registration-debate-taylor-swift-endorsement-sets-record-kamala-harris-donald-trump-electio/75254356007/

Current data shows the trend continues

https://www.pa.gov/en/agencies/dos/resources/voting-and-elections-resources/voting-and-election-statistics.html

The articles state

3.92 million registered D
3.58 million registered R

Current data shows

3.95 million registered D
3.62 million registered R

So in the three weeks since those articles, the Pubs trimmed our registration advantage by another 10k

It is a significant and active trend
