They call them 'battleground' states for a reason

Four years ago, Joe Biden took Pennsylvania by 4.5 points over Donald Trump. But a pro-family activist in that battleground state is convinced Trump can win there this time around.

The polls in the Keystone State remain tight as the state's 19 electoral votes remain in play. Despite a horrible economy, an unending flow of illegal aliens, and rampant crime in many big cities, Kamala Harris holds less than a one-point edge over Trump in a RealClearPolling average of polls taken in the state – keeping Pennsylvania as one of seven "toss up" states.

Still, Diane Gramley, president of the American Family Association of Pennsylvania, likes Trump's chances. "I believe he definitely has a very good chance of pulling it off," she tells AFN, crediting an active ground game in the state.

"I know his campaign is very active throughout the state with Trump Force 47 going door to door, targeting Republican voters who do not normally vote …. They're working very, very hard to win Pennsylvania, and I believe that they will," she predicts.

Gramley shares that she's seeing "many, many more Trump signs" displayed than Harris or Democratic signs in general. In addition, she argues the 45th president has been more directly connected to the voters.

"… He held that town hall outside of Harrisburg, taking questions from individual Pennsylvanians [and was] willing to address their issues answer their questions …. [But] Harris refuses to [do that] – and I think that turns people off," she shares.

The other toss up states are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina and Wisconsin. RealClearPolling has Trump up by an average of two points in Arizona and Georgia; Harris up by almost two points in Michigan and one point in Wisconsin; and the two in a virtual tie in Nevada and North Carolina.

A recent poll from the New York Times shows Trump holding a five-point lead in Arizona; a four-point lead in Georgia; and a two-point lead in North Carolina. Those numbers, released on Monday, are from a survey taken Sept. 17-21 of more than 2,000 likely voters in those three states.
