Where can I find initial indications of how the competition might develop?

Look at two battleground states on the East Coast, North Carolina and Georgia, where results could come relatively quickly. That doesn’t mean we’ll get final results quickly in these states if returns are close, but they are the early swing states that could give a glimpse of what kind of night we’re in for.

To go deeper, look at the urban and suburban areas in the industrial North and Southeast where Democrats have made gains since 2020.

In North Carolina, Harris’ margins in Wake and Mecklenburg counties, home to the state capital Raleigh and the state’s largest city, Charlotte, respectively, will show how much Trump will need to break out of the less populated rural areas he dominates has to squeeze out.

In Pennsylvania, Harris needs high turnout in deep-blue Philadelphia, but she also wants to expand Democrats’ lead in suburban districts to the north and west of the city. She campaigned aggressively in Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties, where Biden surpassed Clinton’s 2016 margin of victory. The Philadelphia metropolitan area, including the four collar counties, accounts for 43% of Pennsylvania’s vote.

Elsewhere in the Blue Wall, Trump must slow Democratic growth in Michigan’s key suburban counties outside Detroit, particularly Oakland County. He faces the same challenge in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, outside of Milwaukee.
