Pa. GOP eliminates Democrats’ voter registration edge

The Pennsylvania Republican Party is approaching a historic achievement by eliminating the Democrats' long-standing voter registration advantage, bringing the two major parties to near parity in the Commonwealth. 

Recent data, published by RealClearPennsylvania, reveals that Democrats now hold a marginal lead of just 49,789 active voters—a dramatic reduction from the nearly 1 million voter edge they enjoyed during the Obama years.

This remarkable shift underscores the Pennsylvania GOP's unwavering commitment to grassroots organizing and outreach. By engaging communities across the state and articulating a compelling vision for Pennsylvania's future, Republicans have successfully registered new voters and welcomed former Democrats into the fold.

“This achievement is a testament to the dedication of our volunteers and the resonance of our message,” said Pennsylvania GOP Chairman Greg Rothman. “Pennsylvanians are embracing Republican values, and this momentum positions us strongly for upcoming elections.”

The narrowing of the voter registration gap reflects a broader trend of Pennsylvanians seeking effective leadership and policies that promote economic growth, personal freedoms, and community safety. The PA GOP remains committed to building on this success, ensuring that every Pennsylvanian's voice is heard and represented.
