Mark Halperin, a political analyst, stated that Vice President Kamala Harris might lose the crucial battleground state of Pennsylvania, which could cost her the election of 2024. In a livestream on his media platform 2WAY on Wednesday, Halperin said that he has been asking people two questions in the state, national strategists to the campaigns, one is, who is currently ahead in the race, and where does Pennsylvania rank in terms of 1-7 of the states that Harris is most likely to win.

According to one strategist, Pennsylvania is among the least likely battleground states for Harris to win; in fact, none of the strategists Halperin spoke with ranked Pennsylvania as such. Pennsylvania is ranked as the sixth most likely state for Kamala Harris to win the 2024 race, according to Democratic insiders, who believe it would be very tough to win. Harris is likely to lose Pennsylvania, but Halperin suggests she may win. The race is a toss-up, and Harris' best path is uncertain if she fails.

One of the seven swing states that separated Trump and Biden in the 2020 election is Pennsylvania. According to both campaigns, these states will also determine the result of the 2024 presidential contest. The race between the two candidates is still very close, according to national polls. The most current Real Clear Politics polling average shows Harris leading Trump by just 1.9 points nationwide. They are still tied at 47 percent in Pennsylvania.
