As America gears up to elect its next president, voter registration gives us a sneak peek into how one state may be headed this November.
In Pennsylvania, data shows that GOP voter registration outpaces Democrat registration by four times. More than 21,000 registrations took place in July alone, marking a significant surge. At the same time, Democrats only racked up 5,000 registrations.
Newsmax is also reporting that since November 2020, “the number of Democrats registered to vote in the state has decreased by more than 320,000.” Similarly, GOP registration dropped at the same time but by a drastically smaller number: 1,400.
“Overall, three million fewer people are registered to vote now compared to November 2020, when there were 121 million registrations, according to Decision Desk HQ,” Newsmax says. “The drop is unsurprising given that The National Voting Rights Act (NVRA) allows states to conduct voter roll clean-ups between elections.”
Decision Desk HQ indicates Democrats have lost 3.5 million registered voters nationally, while the GOP has stacked up a gain of 141,000 registered voters.
“Meanwhile, in 28 of the 30 states that require voters to register with a party, Republicans have net more voter registrations than Democrats (Colorado and California withstanding), picking up more than 225,000 registrations in the first 21 days of July,” the report continues.
The news sparked conversation on X with many celebrating the work of activist Scott Presler, who has made it his mission to register voters and re-elect former President Donald Trump:
Made it safely to Wilkes-Barre.
I saw a Trump stand selling merchandise, so I stopped by to give them Pennsylvania voter registration forms.

That’s why PA already warned us that election results may not be available on election night. There should be 24/7 webcams and hard wired cams in every polling place that cannot be touched or messed with

No doubt a massive part of those numbers are due to the incredible hard work of @ScottPresler!

MY HEART!
This is so beautiful.
Let’s keep registering new Republican voters across Pennsylvania.
Babes, let’s do this.

There you nailed it. About 75% to 25% I believe is the true numbers. I did a poll on my channel with no division with politics just the normal population and the poll ended with 6300 votes and it was 76% Trump and 24% Kamala

Thanks to @ScottPresler with little to NO help from the RNC! He’s been a beast for our party for years. All the WAY back to 2015! He should be the highest paid person in our party & yet he goes mostly unnoticed, underpaid & ignored by the RNC & our party’s leadership! It’s…
