Pennsylvania Democrats approach 2024 election with slimmest voter registration advantage in decades
Despite a bump following Joe Biden’s exit from the presidential race, Democrats in Pennsylvania are entering the home stretch of the 2024 election with their weakest voter registration advantage compared with Republicans in recent decades.
The party’s raw registration numbers began to rise after Biden dropped out in late July, and that trend is continuing. But simultaneously, the number of Republicans has increased even more quickly.
In other words, Democrats’ overall share of voters is still declining, and recent increases haven’t made up for losses over the past four years.
The Pennsylvania Department of State makes available voter registration data as far back as 1998. In those 26 years, Democrats have never had as small an advantage as they do now.
