President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance made multiple high-profile stops emphasizing tariffs, tax relief, and economic messaging &#8211; including Trump celebrating Nippon Steel&#8217;s investment in Pittsburgh and pushing a tariff increase (cited as rising from 25% to 50%) to protect U.S. industry. Vance promoted the management&#8217;s &#8220;One Big Gorgeous Bill&#8221; and its claimed benefits for workers and businesses, while critics pointed to concerns over budget cuts and reinstated work requirements for some public benefits. Polling shows inflation and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/canadas-inflation-rate-accelerates-again-but-not-as-sharply-as-forecast\/\" title=\"Canada\u2019s inflation rate accelerates again, but not as sharply as forecast\">price increases remain<\/a> a top voter concern even as inflation eased enough for a Fed rate cut in December.<\/p>\n<p>Third-party and autonomous movements are gaining traction. The Forward Party continues grassroots organizing in Pennsylvania after modest statewide vote totals in 2024 (its attorney general and treasurer candidates earned roughly 0.3-0.4% each), endorsing local candidates and claiming national ballot access in several states. Forward highlights voters tired of polarization and seeking pragmatic governance.<\/p>\n<p>Independent voters &#8211; about 1.4 million in Pennsylvania &#8211; are pushing for primary access. A Unite America poll found broad support for allowing independents to vote in primaries (69% favor increased participation).Legislation proposing open or semi-open primaries has been introduced (House Bill 280 and Senate Bill 400), with HB 280 narrowly passing a House committee. The debate over primary access underscores a shifting electorate that parties will need to reckon with heading into 2026.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Ahead of midterms, Pennsylvania politics still swinging<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2458899\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>(The Center Square) &ndash;

he said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The Golden Age of America has only just begun,&rdquo; Trump said, &ldquo;and together, we are going to make America great again, greater than ever before.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Vice President J.D.

Democrats have targeted his seat as a potential pickup in 2026, as they rail against higher prices they blame on the administration&rsquo;s tariffs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;My favorite word is tariff,&rdquo; Trump said several times, describing how they raise large revenues from foreign countries that he said have aided farmers, will protect the steel industry, and drive investment and reshoring of manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>But those same tariffs have sparked uncertainty among Americans, according to The Center Square&rsquo;s Voters Voice Poll conducted by Noble Predictive Insights.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thecentersquare.com\/national\/article_1890d510-85b9-4d8a-8a8b-a184f7a5a619.html\">poll<\/a>&nbsp;found that 15% of registered voters cited price increases and inflation as their top issues, followed by government corruption (13%), the economy\/jobs (11%), health care (9%), illegal immigration (8%), and crime\/violence (7%).<\/p>\n<p>Better-than-expected inflation levels, however,&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thecentersquare.com\/national\/article_2d2af8f7-a67a-4524-9d6b-f91e0050e86c.html\">ushered in a third cut<\/a>&nbsp;in the federal rate on Dec. 10.<\/p>\n<p>One week later,&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_5beb7890-4efc-4b28-bebf-6acb74f4ccb7.htmlhttps:\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_4a463bee-c5d4-4e8d-b84c-bfb60923c79c.htmlhttps:\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_8e454f13-7aed-4bbc-888d-ab95103a80dc.htmlhttps:\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_6d5c46d7-7b95-430c-afe3-96225e5d0622.htmlhttps:\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_d4294164-fe9d-490f-be08-ffe5c7f0e734.htmlhttps:\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_e5eccf07-2193-41a2-ac4a-b1bb6a93daaf.htmlhttps:\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_5f0b0a4c-d357-11ef-a100-dbdd58a7d901.html\">the vice president addressed a crowd<\/a>&nbsp;in the Allentown area, underscoring their efforts to keep the state&rsquo;s scales tipped in the red.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At a rally held at Uline Shipping Supplies in Alburtis, Vance touted Trump&rsquo;s economic policies and highlighted several Republican hopefuls.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While the city of Allentown is a Democratic stronghold, the surrounding areas in the county &ndash; and the broader Lehigh Valley &ndash; contain more conservative suburbs and rural areas, making the overall region a crucial swing area for both major parties.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pennsylvania Treasurer Stacy Garrity praised the administration&rsquo;s policies &ndash; such as no tax on tips and the expanded child tax credit &ndash; before taking swipes at Gov. Josh Shapiro, alleging he&rsquo;s more focused on his rumored presidential ambitions, and casting him as an adversary who fights the administration in court instead of working with it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Garrity hopes to unseat Gov. Josh Shapiro next year but faces an uphill battle.<\/p>\n<p>According to&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/poll.qu.edu\/poll-release?releaseid=3933\">a Quinnipiac University poll<\/a>&nbsp;released in October, Shapiro&rsquo;s 60% approval rating was a new record high since he took office in 2023. A hypothetical match-up with Garrity puts him ahead 55%-39%, while 7 out of 10 respondents said they don&rsquo;t know enough about the treasurer to decide whether she&rsquo;d get their vote.<\/p>\n<p>Vance acknowledged the still-high prices and affordability issues concerning many Americans, attributing them to the previous administration&rsquo;s high deficits, energy costs, and inflation. He cautioned that fixing high prices would take time, but added that progress is being made.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We inherited a mess, but I think that in 11 months, we have made great progress to making this a safer, a more secure and a more prosperous nation,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;Let&rsquo;s work for the next three years to do even more great work for the American people, and let&rsquo;s rebuild this country together.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alternative parties making headway<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, following the November 2024 election, as Democrats and Republicans strategize their next moves, one alternative party believes its long-term strategy is beginning to pay off.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_5f0b0a4c-d357-11ef-a100-dbdd58a7d901.html\">Forward Party<\/a>, founded by former Democratic 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang, stepped into the gap created by a polarized America to offer more choices to dissatisfied voters.<\/p>\n<p>In January, Craig Snyder, Forward&rsquo;s Pennsylvania political director, told The Center Square&nbsp;that while they had hoped to reach Pennsylvania&rsquo;s threshold for minor party status in November, they accomplished a lot of building.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Had their two statewide office candidates secured 2% of the vote in the general election, it would have opened the door for official party status in the state. Eric Settle, Forward&rsquo;s candidate for attorney general, received 17,320 votes &ndash; or 0.3%. Chris Foster, their candidate for treasurer, received 0.4% with 25,512 votes.<\/p>\n<p>Snyder said it was tough to compete with the hundreds of millions of dollars thrown into political communications targeted at Pennsylvania, and they didn&rsquo;t have a boat big enough to swim against the red wave.<\/p>\n<p>But he was encouraged by the infrastructure they built with volunteers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It shows that if you can&rsquo;t compete on the level of paid political communication, it is grassroots that make a difference in building the infrastructure and growing supporters,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The party continued to build its infrastructure in 2025 with around one dozen&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paforwardparty.com\/endorsed_candidates\">endorsed candidates<\/a>&nbsp;running for a variety of local offices across the bottom half of the state.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Forward endorsed Judge Pat Dugan in the race for&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thecentersquare.com\/pennsylvania\/article_8e454f13-7aed-4bbc-888d-ab95103a80dc.html\">Philadelphia&rsquo;s District&nbsp;Attorney<\/a>&nbsp;against two-term incumbent Larry Krasner.

When asked which party&rsquo;s primary they would choose to vote in if allowed, 22% said Republican, 25% said Democrat, 17% said neither, and 36% were unsure.&nbsp;Additionally, 69% support new laws allowing more voters to participate in primary elections &ndash; something lawmakers in Harrisburg are currently considering.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pennsylvania is one of only eight states with&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncsl.org\/elections-and-campaigns\/state-primary-election-types\">closed primaries<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>House Bill 280, introduced by Rep.

Daniel Laughlin (R-Erie) and Lisa Boscola (D-Bethlehem) sponsored Senate Bill 400, which proposes semi-open primaries. It was referred to the Senate State Government Committee in April.<\/p>\n<p>In a&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uniteamerica.org\/articles\/what-is-a-semi-open-primary\">semi-open primary<\/a>, independent voters can choose to vote in either the Republican or Democratic primary. Those registered with a specific party may only vote in their own party&rsquo;s primary. This differs from a fully open primary, in which voters can select candidates from any party regardless of affiliation.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Registering as a Democrat or Republican should not be a prerequisite to <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >enjoy full voting rights<\/a> here in Pennsylvania,&rdquo; said Sen. Boscola. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s time we fix this. Allowing independents to vote in primary elections is not just fair &ndash; it ensures that all Pennsylvanians have the freedom to choose the leaders who represent them.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Whether open primary legislation advances in 2026 remains an open question, but the debate itself reflects a shift in the electorate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pennsylvania stays pivotal; third parties gain ground<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2869,"featured_media":2526827,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/AP25344076502954.jpg?w=696","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[6571,7408,5836,5894,25081],"class_list":["post-2526826","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-elections","tag-midterms","tag-pennsylvania","tag-politics","tag-swing-state"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/AP25344076502954.jpg?w=696","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2526826","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2869"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2526826"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2526826\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2526831,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2526826\/revisions\/2526831"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2526827"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2526826"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2526826"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2526826"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
