Former President Donald Trump is planning to make a campaign stop at a McDonald’s in Lower Southampton in Bucks County on Sunday. The visit is part of his 2024 presidential campaign, with Trump also scheduled to hold a town hall event in Lancaster on the same day. The visit comes after Vice President Kamala Harris held an event in the area earlier in the week.
Trump plans to work at the fryer behind the counter during his visit, referencing a similar stop he mentioned at a rally in Indiana, Pennsylvania. Bucks County plays a crucial role in the 2024 election, being a swing county in southeastern Pennsylvania with a nearly equal divide between Republicans and Democrats.
While Trump has not won Bucks County in the past two presidential elections, he has a strong following of supporters in the area. This will be Trump’s second visit to Bucks County in recent months, with a previous visit to the area being canceled due to security concerns.
Bucks County is seen as a key area for both major party candidates in the upcoming election, with Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes being critical for victory. With Republicans and Democrats nearly evenly split in the county, both parties are focusing their efforts on winning over voters in this key battleground.
