00:00Pennsylvania, a crucial swing state that could hold the keys to the White House, is getting
00:06set for a neck-and-neck contest in the U.S. presidential election.
00:09With two weeks to go before the polls, both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have become
00:15fixtures in America's largest battleground state.
00:18With its 19 electoral votes, Pennsylvania is the largest prize of the most important
00:24swing states.
00:25Pennsylvania is a state that went for Trump in 2016, went for Biden in 2020.
00:33It's got a lot of white working-class voters.
00:36So it's got large urban centers, rural communities.
00:41So Pennsylvania serves as sort of a microcosm of the country as a whole, I think, in many
00:46ways.
00:47The winner of the last two presidential elections in the state won by just tens of thousands
00:52of votes.
00:54I think it's split pretty even-even right now.
00:57Half of my friends are voting for Kamala and the other half are voting for Trump.
01:02So if that's any indication, then I think it's a pretty tight race here.
01:06It's really going to be, you know, literally on Election Day, does it rain?
01:10Is it sunny?
01:11And who's knocking on doors and who's most excited about their candidate and going to
01:17the polls for them?
01:19Voters in the U.S. go to the polls on November 5.
01:22With polls showing the race essentially tied here, once again, it could be the state that
01:27tips the election.
