With his overwhelming victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, President-elect Donald Trump created history. One notable accomplishment of his is that Bucks County, Pennsylvania, changed from blue to red for the first time in thirty years.

Trump’s victory in Bucks County was a narrow one, with him receiving 198,722 votes (49.39%) compared to Harris’s 198,431 votes (49.32%). The county had last supported a Republican presidential candidate in 1988 when former President George H.W. Bush won.

The Bucks County Republican Party thanked its grassroots organizations and volunteers for their hard work as it celebrated the historic win. It’s official! The last figures have been released. The party declared on X platform that Donald Trump is the BucksCounty winner and Bucks County is voting for a Republican for president for the first time since 1988!

A significant portion of the credit for this win is given to Republican activist Scott Presler, who dedicated much of his time to campaigning in the county. Florida Voice News Assistant Director Eric Daugherty reported that Trump won the county by just 0.07 percentage points, a margin of 291 votes.

As the dust settles from Harris’s historic defeat, some of her surrogates have suggested that President Joe Biden’s late exit from the race played a role in her loss. However, many former campaign staffers reject this idea, arguing that the blame lies squarely with Harris and her inability to connect with a majority of voters.

According to Andrew Yang, a former Democratic presidential candidate who backed Harris, President Biden bears the greatest responsibility for this defeat. We might be in a completely different situation now if he had resigned in January rather than July. Others, on the other hand, think that Harris’ campaign had problems from the start.

Philadelphia Democratic Chair and former Congressman Bob Brady criticized Harris’s team for being disconnected from local Democratic leaders, accusing them of being “elitist” and not properly engaging with city committees and ward leaders. Some staffers also expressed frustration with the leadership’s overconfidence, citing a disconnect between the campaign’s messaging and the reality of their situation.

According to reports, Jen O’Malley Dillon, Harris’s campaign manager, broke down in tears on an all-staff call, and Harris herself admitted the dismal outcomes, saying that It was awful. Additionally, a lot of positive things have resulted from this. The tone of the call, according to a staff member who talked with Axios, was disengaged from the actual events that transpired.

It was pushed back by a Biden staffer against the notion that Biden’s late exit had caused the loss, with the staffer instead questioning how the campaign could have spent $1 billion and still failed to win. The question was raised about how $1 billion could be spent without achieving victory, highlighting the Harris team’s failure to deliver despite their resources.

According to a Democratic state committee member in Pennsylvania, a critical error was made by Harris’s team in sidelining Biden. It was suggested that the choice had been between the only person who had ever beaten Trump or a gigantic unknown, with the member indicating that Biden’s early exit had been a pivotal mistake that cost Harris the election.
