Opinion: Republicans and Democrats alike recognize how crucial Pennsylvania will be in determining the 2020 presidential election

Former vice president Joe Biden takes a selfie with a supporter in Hampton, N.H., on Monday. By Jennifer Rubin Jennifer Rubin Opinion writer covering politics and policy, foreign and domestic Email Bio Follow Opinion writer May 16 at 9:00 AM Republicans and Democrats alike recognize how crucial Pennsylvania will be in determining the 2020 presidential election.

In the Quinnipiac poll released on Wednesday, Biden in a hypothetical general-election match-up against Trump would win by 11 points . Sen. Bernie Sanders would win by seven points and Sen. Elizabeth Warren by three; South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Kamala D. Harris would essentially tie Trump; and Beto O’Rourke would lose by two points.

Turning to the Democratic primary, it’s a romp. “Biden leads in a Pennsylvania Democratic primary with 39 percent, followed by Sanders with 13 percent, Harris and Warren with 8 percent each, Buttigieg at 6 percent and Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey with 5 percent. No other Democratic contender tops 2 percent.” One big reason is that 61 percent of Democratic voters think Biden has the best chance; only 6 percent think Sanders does.
