New Jersey voters (D) with swing-state envy are knocking on doors in Pa.'s 'Trump alley'
Like hundreds of others, Van Allen and McNees have concluded theres no point in staying home in New Jersey, talking yourself blue in a blue state, with the outcome of next weeks election, and its 14 Electoral College votes, seemingly predetermined.
New Jersey is where Vice President Kamala Harris has touched down just one time: in Trenton, at the airport, whereupon she immediately reversed George Washingtons route and headed straight for Washington Crossing, Bucks County.
Former President Donald Trump last appeared at a public rally in Wildwood, back in May, and has attended fundraisers in the state. A couple of weeks after President Joe Biden dropped out as the candidate, Trump invited reporters to his Bedminster, N.J., golf course for a news conference.
Earlier this month, Gov. Phil Murphy held a fundraiser featuring second gentleman and Jersey native Doug Emhoff, whose parents still live in New Jersey. Bruce Springsteen used a Freehold diner as a backdrop for a Harris endorsement, but saved his local live appearance for Philadelphia.
