Analysis: In one of the most hotly contested 2020 battlegrounds, some Democrats worry that President Trump will win. But it wouldn't take many Trump crossover votes to tip the state to Joe Biden. - jonallendc

, and rural stretches dotted with small towns, is one of the most heavily contested in the country.

In one of four Forks precincts, comprising a little more than 2,000 voters, Trump won 48.24 percent to Hillary Clinton's 47.58 percent four years ago — almost identical to his 48.17 percent to 47.45 percent statewide margin. Trump won with 52 percent in a second precinct, and he split the other two with Clinton, both by margins of less than 4 percent. Like the county and the state, Forks leaned ever-so-slightly toward Trump.

Trump is counting on his base of voters like Sharon Lahr, 67, of Martin's Creek and Jeff Geake, a veteran of operating engineers local 542 in Fort Washington to carry the day.
