<p>Former President Donald Trump has gained significant ground in Pennsylvania in recent months, according to a <a href="https://www.politicspa.com/common-ground-poll-finds-pennsylvanians-have-concerns-on-direction-of-state-country/136687/">poll</a> released Tuesday by the Commonwealth Foundation.</p>
<p>The survey taken between June 14-19 of 800 registered voters in Pennsylvania — a vital battleground state in the 2024 election — showed that 47% of respondents would vote for the Republican candidate in the presidential election and 48% would choose the Democratic candidate. While Democrats still lead in the poll, the results show a significant shift in favor of Trump from the Commonwealth Foundation <a href="https://www.commonwealthfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Common-Ground-Q1-2024-Toplines-03292024.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">poll</a> taken in March, where Democrats held a 51% to 44% lead.</p>
<p>The new poll, notably taken before last week&#8217;s debate, spells more trouble for the Biden campaign as other Democrats in the state maintained high favorability among Pennsylvanians while Joe Biden&#8217;s favorability dropped three points. According to the poll, Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA), who is up for re-election this year, maintains a +14 favorability rating and holds a 12-point lead over Republican candidate David McCormick. Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), who was elected in 2022, has a +11 favorability rating. President Biden&#8217;s favorability rating among Pennsylvanians is underwater by 12 points.</p>
<p>Trump is also moving in the right direction among Pennsylvania voters in a <a href="https://www.cygn.al/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/22016-Cygnal-PA-Deck-Public.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cygnal poll</a> that was taken last week. According to Cygnal, which serves GOP campaigns, likely voters prefer the Republican presidential candidate to the Democratic candidate 47.3% to 44.7%. &#8220;Swing voters&#8221; also preferred the GOP candidate to the Democrat by nearly four points, while 40% of swing voters remain unsure of who they would vote for in November.</p>
<p>The latest Commonwealth Foundation poll shows negative results for Biden in Pennsylvania even before respondents watched the first debate of 2024 between Biden and Trump, a debate that was widely viewed as disastrous for the president. A <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/28/politics/debate-poll-cnn-trump-biden/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN survey</a> of debate watchers showed that 67% believe Trump won while only 33% say that Biden did better. Biden&#8217;s debate performance caused panic among Left-leaning political commentators and some Democrats who questioned if Biden should step aside and let another candidate run against Trump.</p>
<p>In another telling sign for Democrats, who have focused much of their 2024 campaign strategy on abortion, 20% of registered voters in Pennsylvania ranked inflation/cost of living as the top issues facing the country heading into the election. Ten percent said immigration/border security is the biggest issue, and the economy 9% said the same of the economy. Only 5% of respondents ranked abortion as the top issue.</p>
<p>Pennsylvania helped Trump win the presidency in 2016 and was an important piece of Biden&#8217;s path to victory four years ago. Trump maintains a three-point lead over Biden in the polls, according to the <a href="https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/pennsylvania/trump-vs-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">RealClearPolitics average</a> as of Tuesday morning.</p>
