Jericka Duncan and Analisa Novak report for CBS News on how Pennsylvania election officials are discussing the 2024 presidential election.

A CBS News poll revealed that 72% of Pennsylvania Republicans do not consider President Biden the legitimate winner of the 2020 presidential election. [Al] Schmidt encouraged those with doubts to get more involved in the election process.

“When I meet people who are responsible for running elections, I don’t know if they’re Democrats, I don’t know if they’re Republicans, and I don’t really care if they are or not. I care that they’re running elections in a way that’s free and fair and safe and secure,” said Schmidt.

Looking ahead to Nov. 6, the day after Election Day, Schmidt said he has one clear hope: that news agencies report, “Election Day went smoothly in Pennsylvania.”
