Although more Republicans than Democrats vote early, the state has a large number of independent voters. I don’t know exactly how they’re voting, but it’s going to be a close race. Because, as you say, if he wins Georgia, the race is over. If he wins Pennsylvania and loses Georgia, the campaign is over. That’s because if he wins Nevada, Arizona, and North Carolina, he could be on the electorate of either 15 or 19 states. Michigan and Georgia have 16, and Pennsylvania has 16. [is] 19. Any one of them will get him to the top. ”
