Candidates target Erie County as key battleground in tight Pennsylvania race

Erie County, Pennsylvania, has voted for the winning presidential candidate in the last four elections. Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are both focusing on this key county, which has 177,000 registered voters and is seen as crucial for winning Pennsylvania's electoral votes. Harris leads Trump by four points in a recent poll, but the race remains tight. Both candidates emphasize the importance of voter turnout, with Harris highlighting her campaign's extensive ground operation and Trump relying on a smaller team and volunteer network. Voter sentiment in Erie County is mixed. Some former Trump supporters are now backing Harris, citing concerns over his policies. Meanwhile, Trump maintains a strong base, particularly in rural areas, as both campaigns work to secure every vote ahead of Election Day.
