Pennsylvania voters are critical to the 2024 race for control of the White House. How critical? By the time Nov. 5 arrives, millions and millions of dollars in advertising will have been spent sending out pamphlets, putting commercials on TV and online, and generally trying to get out key votes. In this presidential election year, Pittsburgh-area voters will also decide on U.S. Senate, two key U.S. House races and a number of other positions across the commonwealth. Whether you’re voting for the first time (here’s a link to help to find where you should do that), updating your party registration or looking for candidate information, this guide will help.
Donald Trump is making his third consecutive run for the presidency. The Republican nominee was elected president in 2016 in his first-ever bid for public office, but lost his re-election bid in 2020. He is a developer and former casino owner.
Vice President Kamala Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee in August after President Joe Biden unexpectedly decided not to seek a second term. Prior to becoming vice president, she served as a U.S. senator from California and the state’s attorney general.
