How did he do it? Yeah, so he didn't just flip the state. He actually won it by a bigger margin than he did in 2016. That's because across almost every county, every demographic group, every region, he made significant inroads. But Philadelphia itself was drastic. It got nearly five points more Republican than in 2020. Hmm.

And Sherita ended up standing in for a lot of the new voters that Trump captured last year. They weren't traditional Republicans. They might not have voted for a Republican before at all. But they liked his first term. They remembered it well. And they believed his message this time around.
