I don't know about that-Clinton visited Pennsylvania 11 times since the Democratic Convention, which was also in Philly, had her huge rally the night before the election in Philly with the Obamas, and she still lost to Trump.
She was the absolute worst candidate to put up this year-what she symbolizes but also timing wise with her investigations, etc.-and the DNC thought they could scare voters into supporting her by hoping her opponent would be the biggest "joke" and "threat" of a candidate they could imagine. The joke is on them.
It just shows how completely out of touch the major political parties and corporate media are-Hillary was rejected for Obama in 2008-and Obama lost a huge chunk of his coalition since then because he did not deliver on the change his supporters were clamoring for-namely ending wars and reigning in financial corruption.
The DNC/Clinton campaign thought voters would go crazy and be energized again for another First--Insert Demographic--President. They failed to realize that Obama did not energize voters just because of his demographic, but because of his message and what he was promising/represented. Bernie Sanders and Trump represented "change". Hillary represented the complete opposite.
Wisconsin hasn't voted for a Republican President since 1984. Pennsylvania hasn't voted for a Republican President since 1988.
That right there just shows how awful the DNC candidate must have been.
