Trump Defeats Harris in Northampton County

Donald Trump has unofficially won in Northampton County. With all 154 precincts in and all 58,914 mail-in ballots counted, he has 88,171 votes to 84,291 for Kamala Harris. Because NorCo is considered a bellwether for the rest of the country, this is very bad news for Harris supporters.

Harris had 36,730 mail-in ballots to 21,229 for Trump. But Trump trounced Harris with election day votes, 66,942 to 47,531. Turnout was a remarkable 74.6%. 

Other than long lines, there were few problems at the polls. In Bethlehem 3, known as Banana Factory, Lehigh U students had to wait several hours to cast their votes. President Judge Craig Dally spurned a Democratic request to keep polls open until 10 pm, but students remained and voted, giving Harris 1,482 votes to just 360 for Trump. 

The unofficial tally does not include provisional ballots. Those will be computed during the official canvass, which starts November 8 and is open to the public. They are unlikely to change the results in any significant way. 

It was something of a red wave. Voters chose Republican Dave McCormick over incumbent Bob Casey, 84,265 to 82,254. They voted for Republicans in all of the row office races. They voted Republican in all contested state house races. Despite being significantly outspent and outworked, incumbent Republican Joe Emrick defeated Anna Thomas in the 137th, 20,203 to 18.796. 

Only Democrat incumbent Congress member Susan Wild survived in the county, though she appears to be losing the race. She won NorCo with 85,241 votes to 84,976 for Republican Ryan Mackenzie. But she is leading in Lehigh County, which is still only partially reported. She has 94,235 votes there to 89,704 for Mackenzie. She was crushed in Carbon County, especially after word leaked that she disparaged the voters there. Mackenzie garnered 19,517 votes to 7,499 for Wild. Combining the three counties, it appears that Mackenzie has 194,197 votes to 186,975 for Wild. 

NorCo's votes are reflected statewide. Harris is behind in Bucks County, one of the collar counties around Philadelphia. Unofficially, Trump leads in the state with 50.83% of the vote. 

Nationally, the New York Times reports that Trump has 267 electoral college votes, with 270 needed for a victory.

    2. @8:18 so let me see if I have this right, this supposed God you speak of helped save Trump's life but he wasn't responsible and couldn't have stopped him from getting shot in the first place? I love how people think that God somehow saved Trump and it's even funnier that naïve people actually think Trump is in the least bit religious.

  2. I’m shocked. I’m sick. I’m concerned. I didn’t like Harris, but the extreme fringe of Trump supporters scares the hell out of me. America has votes in a felon who will pardon himself and who has the privilege of pardoning many who worked in the White House with him. I am truly scared for what will come because this man will have too much power. I am sorry world, I tried.

    Kamala Harris was just not a good candidate and despite our state-run news media’s best efforts, enough Americans were intelligent enough to cut through all their crap and censorship. Let this be a lesson to The Morning Call. YOU, Morning Call, are the garbage.

    Those who look carefully at today’s numbers, and considering how much grief Democrats gave Trump since 2020, my claims of election cheating by Democrats back then now looks less likely to have been just another conspiracy theory to be scoffed at.

But remember, this isn’t any great victory. It was narrow. And we have a senator who doesn’t live in PA because rather than learn about the candidates voters voted straight party. Pennsylvania , you’ve been farmed out. So another four years of name calling, erratic behavior, petty vindications, and sooo much more grifting. Goodbye Department of Education, goodbye Department of Justice, goodbye Supreme Court, and goodbye Ukraine, oh, and goodbye Social Security as we know it.

He won easily on all of those key points. Dick Cheney and the warmonger generals' endorsements of Harris were manna from heaven for Trump's campaign. The unceasing lawfare was way over the top and helped him, as well; especially with libertarian independents. He didn't have to spend a dime for those huge campaign contributions.

More of the persons in line should also have been allowed into the building, which could have provided bathroom access to them.

  71. As a moderate Democrat who voted for Harris, I have to admit that our party once again created a Trump presidency. We ran a very far left candidate who did not compete in a primary, Harris was very weak on public safety/ immigration and tried to use abortion rights as her primary campaign strategy. Her claims to lower the prices of groceries and housing were laughable, who could do that??? Her policies did not appeal to a national electorate and we even lost a lot of voters in some of our traditional strong states (Illinois, New Jersey and New York). I really truly hope the Democrats veer back towards the center in the coming years to avoid losing national elections.

    1. agree with you 100%. Trump was finished in '21, and DeSantis was polling @70% in Republican primaries- then your party decided to unleash the Justice Dept. after him- the rest is history!

  72. Of course, I am disappointed to see that a fascist has been elected President, but I do respect the will of the American people. I hope our Constitution is strong enough to keep him in check.

    As a Democrat, I'd agree that my party needs to do some soul-searching. It was at one time the party of the working class, but it has strayed since Clinton got NAFTA thru Congress.

    1. Your comment here and another one earlier suggest how awful Trump is and you’re sure the American electorate will eventually wake up. Sorry to tell you old man, but they did.

  73. Illegal immigration and deportations were absolute winning issues - especially with blacks and Hispanics, who like all good Americans, DESPISE line jumpers. Look at a supermarket or ticket line or amusement park. People across the spectrum HATE line jumpers. Biological men smacking women around in sports is right up there, too.

    3. I can tell you live in your Northampton county echo-chamber, but in places like California, those “line-jumpers” are a critical workforce in agriculture and the industry would collapse because privileged pricks like yourself wouldn’t last a day in those fields. AND they get paid like shit. So please, please, please deport these hard working migrants ASAP, I dare you!

    4. And so interesting that Trump has aligned himself with Elon Musk, an immigrant, who spent time as an illegal immigrant after he quit his University of Pennsylvania fellowship. He’s another creepy guy with multiple wives and children with wives and non-wives. It’s much more fun to run Chinese factories from home base USA. Our moral leadership has sunk so low. How could our local RC bishop suggest voting Republican?? This RC didn’t.

  78. Crazy that an administration failed miserably in dealing with a global pandemic is being rewarded a 2nd term of office. A million Americans died on his watch, how many in the next 4 years?

  80. There are three pluses to this if you are a L.V. Democrat.
    1. Fetterman will be the senior senator from PA. (And he's gotta buy that Nutmegger lunch!)
    2. The 2028 Democrat candidate for president cannot possibly lose to Trump.
    3. You no longer have to pretend that Susan Wild is capable, competent, and sapient.

    2. Your blog is safe, despite its constant flow of disinformation. I appreciate reading it to monitor the unhinged left fringe, which you steadily and increasingly became. The only ones monitoring/impeding/censoring social media platforms were Democrats. Elon Musk mostly fixed that.

  86. Harris says They will keep fighting for what more inflation, more illegals, more crime. more wars, Democrats must go away they are the enemy within our country.

  87. Democrats had better candidates available to them. She has never been popular within her party, and never did well in primaries against other Democrats.

    Biden hid her as much as he could, but the King/Queen makers within the party liked the sound of her name, the color of her skin, and her gender/sex.

    She is a creation of Democrat idiocy. An empty head. An empty suit.

    2. Bernie & the media constantly called half the country Hitler, racists, fascists, cult followers, etc. and expected a different result! Even Alan Dershowitz said the cases brought against Trump were the worst cases he's ever seen- even wrote a book about them: Get Trump!

  92. The Dems did this all themselves, they are fully responsible for their party's collapse. The lies, the preoccupation of getting rid of Trump no matter what. The crime, open borders, economy, the hate speeches...Yep, they did it to themselves. America woke up this morning to a bright future, the people have spoken!

  99. The things I’m most looking forward to Trump accomplishing during the next 4 years:
    1. Ending the filibuster.
    2. Adding at least 4 more justices to the U.S. Supreme Court.
    3. Shutting down social media sites and blogs that allow liberal disinformation and hate.
    4. Giving additional electoral college votes to conservative states.

    1. 8:36, I'd like to take credit, but the truth is that the Exec did not know what was happening. Once he found out, he took steps to change it. Yes, he is a cheap bastard, but he is more on your side than you think.

  102. I’m adding this late, but I think it’s necessary that your readers know. With Trump comes deregulation for international business doing business in the US. Be aware that deregulation will not lower prices on anything. Deregulation sets the stage for wild fluctuations in prices only controlled by competition. Most of your everyday groceries are not produced or manufactured in the US. Nestle, Unilever, and the large international suppliers are ready to go. Just watch.
