3.5% of PA is Puerto Rican... uh oh

[frigidweirdo]

MSN

"Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro responded to Hinchcliffe’s comments during an appearance on WILK Newsradio Monday morning, saying there are nearly half a million Puerto Ricans living in Pennsylvania." (This is 3.8%)

" The Pew Research Center says Pennsylvania has the fourth-highest Puerto Rican population in the United States which makes up about 8% of the state’s population." (this might be Hispanics, wikipedia says it's 8% Hispanic)

2020 United States presidential election in Pennsylvania - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

69% of Hispanics voted Biden, 29% voted Trump in 2020.

That made up 5% of the vote. Trump lost the state by 1.2%

Trump has been ahead in the polling in PA 0.2% to 0.5% until Kamala came out ahead by 0.3% in the latest one, which puts Trump head in general.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statewide_opinion_polling_for_the_2024_United_States_presidential_election#Pennsylvania

If he loses 29% of 5% that's 1.45%

He probably wouldn't lose all of the Hispanic vote, if he lost 29% of the 3.5%, that's 17,500 votes, that could be a tipping point. The number of supporters from Puerto Rico was probably higher than this as Trump was polling way above his 2020 figures.

Yeah, the MSG rally will give Harris the PA vote on a platter.

So damn stupid. Here is your October surprise, Donald.

Trumpy only hires the best D-list comedians.

Looks like you're on a platter today.

Are people implying Puerto Ricans are so thin skinned and shallow that some comedian's joke supercedes all issues for the next four years? Wow.

I just had a look a that aggregate to see how they came up with that 0.3% lead for Harris.

Here are the polls they are using, see for yourself.

Polling conducted for the 2024 President election in Pennsylvania.

The other two main aggregators: RCP has Trump at +0.5, and 538 has Trump at +0.3.

There is no early in-person voting in PA, so the early returns are all mail-ins and they favor Harris but that is expected.

The way you all are absolutely cratering is amazing.

As I have said, you are quickly losing the culture.

2024 is dead sick of 2016 outrage, but you have nothing else. Nothing.

Astounding

In their heads it goes like this:

"I was on the fence but screw it. I can't afford to live, but some comedian at Trump's rally said something terrible about Puerto Rico so now I'm all in on Harris"

Just truly, sincerely out of touch

 

[conserveguy877]

We get it the joke fell flat. But we move trying to make America great while you idiots harp on something Trump didn't even say.

 

[Mister Iggy]

Trump didnt say it, it was a comedian and it was funny.

Kamala getting booed at her rally, twice, just lost her the election..

Not picking Josh Shapiro as her VP, because he is Jewish, lost her Pennsylvania. A Puerto Rican joke by some comedian no one has heard of, wont.

Not to mention it's exposing something that is strange to say the least.

People to the nth generation saying "I'm Puerto Rican"...great. Why don't you want to live there, if you're Puerto Rican? There's a REASON their family left Puerto Rico. Right?

It reminds me of Boris Johnson (also the executive of a country, also born in New York and also a massive bullshitter) who did all manner of stupid things and nothing could take him down, except one small insignificant thing.

Trump didn't say it. But it was at HIS SHOW.

If he can't control what a comedian says at his rally, how can he run the damn country?

And has he come out and said "the comedian's an asshole, he shouldn't have said it"? NO

Did he say anything again the North Carolina governor candidate who he supported? NO

That's Trump.

You're trying to make the country great, by insulting people because they don't get to vote in the election (unless they live in a state, which, by the way, many do)

We think your attempts at "making the country great" are actually a "joke [that] fell flat"

And that 0.5% and 0.3% is 34,000 and 20,000 people.

Puerto Ricans make up 500,000 people. That's 6.8% and 4% of the Puerto Rican population. Of course there won't be that many voters... but still...

It’s not a big deal, trump doesn’t need to say anything.

Your tds is really out of control. How are you going to cope if he wins?

Sure, Trump doesn't need to say anything, and Hispanics don't need to vote for Trump.

And you now want to talk about your fictional version of me, do you?

Great post, the sort of post you expect from a Trump supporter, full of substance, links to facts etc etc

Who are all these little girls with hurt feelings, who were going to vote for Trump but a comedian at his rally made a joke about PR and now they won't?

Part of my job is literally listening to tattles from first graders.....you all are worse. BUCK UP
