The data showing that Luzerne has flipped comes from the Pennsylvania Department of State and shows that Republicans now hold a slim voter registration advantage in the critical battleground county..<\/p>\n<p>According to that data from the Pennsylvania Department of State, the Republican Party holds a very slight lead of just dozens of voters in the county. As of the latest examination of the voter rolls, the Republican Party has 87,415 registered voters in Luzerne County, and the Democrats have 87,332.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That razor-thin lead of just 83 votes shows that things are trending in the direction of former President Trump, though there are a great many unaffiliated and unaligned voters in the county who could flip it to Harris if motivated to do so: of the 203,321 total registered voters in the county, there are 28,574 voters who are either registered with minor parties or with no party affiliation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\"><\/div>\n<p>Scott Presler, a widely celebrated GOP activist known for registering Americans to vote in the hope of helping win more parties over to the GOP, celebrated the great news on X (formerly Twitter). He posted, \u201d WE DID IT! IT IS DONE! We flipped Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, from<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, Presler noted that the news is quite encouraging and shows that the GOP can win, particularly if people volunteer. He said, \u201cMY HEART SINGS! We can do this \u2014 we CAN win Pennsylvania. I am so fired up! To anyone in Luzerne County, please visit the GOP HQ &amp; volunteer: 212 Wyoming Avenue Kingston, PA 18704.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\"><\/div>\n<p>On the other side of thins, however, Luzerne County Democratic Chairman Thomas Shubilla told local media station WVLA that he doesn\u2019t see the voter registration news as a fixed victory for Republicans and that as news breaks for both sides, the voter registration battle will shift back and forth between the parties.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cI have a feeling that those numbers will go back and forth for a little while, periodically.\u201d Continuing, Shubilla said that the voter registration shift to the GOP is \u201ca symbolic victory\u201d for the party as it attempts to win Pennsylvania, but is not the end of the battle for the Democratic Party in the state.<\/p>\n<p>Shubilla said, commenting on how the current news could help the Democrats in the state to get out and volunteer for victory, much as Presler called on Republicans to vote, \u201cI think this will probably create a fire under our volunteers to get more registrants on our side.\u201d He added. \u201cIt\u2019s certainly not for lack of trying. We have a lot of great volunteers.\u201d<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-584\" src=\"https:\/\/shareinfo24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8923-300x210.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shareinfo24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8923-300x210.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/shareinfo24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8923-1024x715.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/shareinfo24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8923-768x537.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/shareinfo24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8923.jpeg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As former President Donald Trump takes on Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential race and the swing state of Pennsylvania looks to be a key&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-583","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
