This election is going to come down to a handful of states.
If this trend holds in swing states, then Trump will win the 2024 election without a hitch.
And Donald Trump just secured one massive endorsement that could turn this vital swing state.
A handful of votes could determine the election
It’s amazing to think about how close the 2016 and 2020 elections really were.
In 2016, about 50,000 votes determined the difference between a Trump victory or defeat.
Trump only won by 10,704 votes in Michigan and 44,292 votes in Pennsylvania, which was enough to win the election.
In 2020, Biden won Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin by only around 40,000 votes combined.
That’s the voting bloc of a suburban locality in these states.
If around 20,000 voters in 2020 were swayed to vote for Trump instead of Biden, then Trump would still be President to this day.
This proves it really doesn’t take much movement at the local level in a swing state to change the course of the election.
So if a powerful local group endorses a Presidential candidate in a swing state, then you need to pay attention.
Major endorsement from Milwaukee
Everyone knows Trump is definitely the pro-law enforcement candidate of this election cycle.
As Trump was backing the blue, Kamala Harris was personally advocating to bail out Black Live Matters rioters in 2020.
So it shouldn’t shock anyone that Trump received the Milwaukee Police Association’s endorsement for the 2024 Presidential election.
Last week, the President of the Milwaukee Police Association, Alexander Ayala, pinned a letter of endorsement on behalf of the association for the Trump-Vance ticket.
“The challenges of policing in the city of Milwaukee are many. Some areas of the city will at times go with only one squad to patrol the entire area of 44,000 citizens, as squads get pulled to other parts of the city to address high-priority calls, which can often be more violent in nature and require more officers,” the letter read. “The Milwaukee Police Association believes that the solution to these challenges can be found right here. That’s why the MPA is endorsing the presidential ticket of Donald Trump and JD Vance. Addressing these issues isn’t political; it’s truly a matter of life and death to Milwaukee.”
The letter dropped online as J.D. Vance was speaking with Ayala at a Milwaukee Police Association function.

The Association claims on their website that they have over 1,500 active members.
With family members included, this endorsement could secure thousands of votes for Trump in Wisconsin.
These thousands of votes could mean the difference between victory or defeat for Trump in the Badger State, as he only lost it by 20,682 votes in 2020.
