In a peculiar poll conducted by a bakery in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, cookies have emerged as an unconventional predictor for the upcoming 2024 US presidential election. The bakery's sales figures show that Donald Trump cookies, adorned with red sprinkles, have far outpaced those representing Kamala Harris, with 5,200 Trump cookies sold compared to just 500 Harris cookies. Though the bakery emphasizes that their cookie survey is not scientific, it has sparked interest and discussion among locals as the election approaches.
As the race intensifies, key swing states such as Pennsylvania, Georgia, and North Carolina are under the spotlight. Current forecasts indicate a tight competition, with Harris and Trump neck-and-neck in polls. Political analysts stress the importance of these states in determining the outcome of the election. Notably, Harris must learn from Hillary Clinton's previous campaign mistakes in Pennsylvania, focusing on outreach beyond major metropolitan areas to secure vital votes.
