The entire election could come down to the state of Pennsylvania. Donald Trump won it in 2016 and the polls this time around are close. As Democrats have been requesting more ballots than Republicans under the state’s new vote by mail system, Trump and Republicans have been trying to limit that system in ways that critics say are designed to suppress turnout. There are also fears that Republican lawmakers in the state legislature will try to steal Pennsylvania’s Electoral College electors for Trump. 

For insight into what’s happening in the state, I caught up with Pennsylvania’s Democratic Attorney General Josh Shapiro. He is running for his second term there, and has been in court in a series of cases about the election.
