3. SOUNDBITE (English) Paul Roden, voter:
"Well, we know for a fact that there are going to be lawsuits. There’s going to be audits, there’s going to be forensic audits. And who knows what’s going to happen on January 6th, 2025. I hope Biden is prepared and I hope the Congress is prepared. That’s what I’m worried about."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Mark Lopatin, voter:
"The MAGA movement has veered away from Republicans and become a totally extreme group. I maintain my Republican stature, but I can’t support a movement that just doesn’t stand for human decency."

++BLACK FRAMES++

5. SOUNDBITE (English) Mark Lopatin, voter:
"I’m concerned. I mean, you hear the polls, but you don’t know what the polls are based on. You don’t know who they interviewed, what questions were asked. They ask the question, is the country moving in the right direction? My answer is no. But that’s not because of Biden-Harris. It’s because of Trump."

++BLACK FRAMES++

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Mark Lopatin, voter:
"Nonetheless, every poll says the race is close. I’m concerned greatly if Trump gets back into the White House."

++BLACK FRAMES++

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Mark Lopatin, voter:
"And his desire to suppress the press, his desire to punish his political enemies, all just speaks out of 1930s, speaks to 1930s Germany."

++BLACK FRAMES++

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Suzan Lopatin, voter:
"I am a Jewish educator, and I educate teachers on how to teach about the Holocaust, and the kids will just look at you and say, that’s what’s happening now. Trump is playing the Hitler handbook."

++BLACK FRAMES++

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Hilary Walsh, voter:
"I’m really scared because it seems like it’s very close. There’s so much on the line here. And the alternative is so disastrous."

++BLACK FRAMES++

10. SOUNDBITE (English) Melanie Woods, voter:
"In 2016, we thought we had it, you know, we thought we were okay. And then that was a great lesson. And I don’t think you can ever take anything for granted any more."

STORYLINE:
Kamala Harris supporters attending a campaign event in Washington Crossing in the battleground state of Pennsylvania are concerned about democracy and the possibility of Donald Trump going back to the White House in a close election.

"I’m concerned. I mean, you hear the polls, but you don’t know what the polls are based on. You don’t know who they interviewed, what questions were asked. They ask the question, is the country moving in the right direction? My answer is no." Mark Lopatin said. "But that’s not because of Biden-Harris. It’s because of Trump."

Lopatin, who supports the Harris-Walz campaign, said "I maintain my Republican stature, but I can’t support a movement that just doesn’t stand for human decency."
