Podcast: A look back at a historic campaign season in Western Pennsylvania
The 2024 presidential election is nearing its conclusion, with Election Day less than a week away. For Pennsylvanians, this election season has been marked by energy and purpose.
Several significant events have made this election memorable. President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump faced off in a debate that many viewed as detrimental to the Biden-Harris campaign. The United States Secret Service faced scrutiny after an assassination attempt left Trump with a bullet graze on his ear during a rally in Butler County. Shortly after, young voters in Western Pennsylvania expressed relief and excitement at the renewed Harris-Walz ticket at the Democratic National Convention. Political heavyweights, including former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, as well as billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Cuban, visited Pittsburgh as surrogate supporters of the candidates.
Throughout these events, Ryan Deto has provided in-depth coverage of Western Pennsylvania’s political landscape.
Deto joins host Zac Gibson to review the presidential race so far, share his experiences and discuss the pivotal issues that could influence voters in the Keystone State.
