Byron Donalds predicts swing states’ undecided voters will ‘break’ toward Trump – Washington Examiner
In a recent appearance on Fox News, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) expressed his belief that undecided voters in swing states will lean towards former President Donald Trump due to concerns over immigration and the economy. He argued that these voters recognize the negative impact of Vice President Kamala Harris on both issues and that her record is damaging for her campaign. Donalds stated that the ongoing illegal immigration crisis is a consequence of her policies and criticized her lack of transparency with the public.
He suggested that Trump’s presence could also bolster Republican Senate candidates, including Dave McCormick, who is running against incumbent Senator Bob Casey (D-PA). Both Donalds and McCormick implied that Harris’s candidacy would not aid Casey, branding him a “do-nothing senator.” McCormick noted a shift in voter momentum favoring him as they recognize the differences between the candidates. Donalds encouraged voters to participate in early voting to ensure their voices are heard in the upcoming elections.
Byron Donalds predicts swing states’ undecided voters will ‘break’ toward Trump
Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) argued immigration and economic concerns will push undecided voters to vote for former President Donald Trump, adding that Republican Senate candidates will be carried over by the former president this November.
Donalds made his prediction on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo alongside Republican Pennsylvania Senate candidate Dave McCormick, who is running against incumbent Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA). The Florida representative contended that voters “know” that Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s 2024 presidential candidate, that Harris “broke” both the economy and the southern border, and that both are on her record.
“This massive wave of illegal immigration in cities like Philadelphia, in Pittsburgh, Chicago, Phoenix, Arizona, Las Vegas, Nevada, that’s on her record, that’s her fault,” Donalds said. “And at the end of the day, she’s not stood firm in front of the American people about what she’s going to do. She’s mostly hidden from the press.”
Donalds added that Harris’s presidential bid would not help carry Casey over the finish line come Election Day, as Casey is “a do-nothing senator.” He contended that while it would be a close race in swing states like Pennsylvania, Trump would emerge as the victor.
McCormick assessed that there is “real momentum” for both him and the former president, citing how voters are seeing “the contrast” between the candidates. He pointed to how Casey has almost exclusively voted for the Democratic Party, and that this has helped move the momentum into McCormick’s favor.
Donalds also pressed voters to take part in early voting to ensure “their voices are heard.”
With 30 days left until Election Day, early voting has already begun in states like Virginia, Illinois, and Mississippi. Early voting will expand to additional states, including Indiana and Wyoming, on Tuesday. While Pennsylvania does not have early voting, the state’s counties can offer absentee and mail-in ballot applications, which can be returned no later than 8 p.m. on Election Day.
A recent poll surveying 1,000 likely voters found that Trump and Harris are in a dead heat for Pennsylvania, with both garnering 48% support against a margin of error of 3-percentage points. The same poll found that Casey leads McCormick by 2%, putting the senator’s lead within the margin of error; 8% of these respondents were undecided between Casey and McCormick.
