Trump lags among seniors in early voting as Democrats gain momentum in Pennsylvania

Early voting in Pennsylvania shows a significant shift, with Democratic women voting in large numbers, raising optimism for Kamala Harris. Reports indicate that Trump is lagging among seniors, a demographic that has traditionally supported Republicans. In Pennsylvania, voters over 65 have cast nearly half of early ballots, with 58% going to Democrats and only 35% to Republicans. This marks a notable change, as both parties have similar numbers of registered seniors. Democratic modeling suggests that seniors over 65 are voting at rates 10 to 20% higher than their Republican counterparts in key states. Additionally, older Black voters, especially women, are returning ballots at the highest rates among all demographic groups.
