With the U.S. presidential election not until today (March 3), a bakery in Pennsylvania, one of the key “swing states,” has been quick to launch a “cookie poll” featuring the two candidates, Trump and Biden, and as of yesterday morning (February 2), Trump was the leading seller, having sold about 28,000 cookies.
According to media reports, Lochel’s Bakery in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, began selling presidential candidate cookies about two months ago, with red for Trump and blue for Biden. Come, just to get the cookies. The cookies are scheduled to stop selling on the evening of the 3rd, and this survey will be finalized tonight. As of yesterday, Trump had sold more than 28,000 cookies, far more than Biden’s 5,000, according to the owner.
In fact, the bakery has been selling election cookies since the 2008 presidential election, predicting who would be elected from the cookie sales, and has been able to predict the outcome of the election three times. Eric Trump, Trump’s second son, also visited the bakery last month, creating a sensation.
Kathleen Lochel, the owner, said, “It was the busiest day we’ve had so far, even more so than the week before Christmas. After the election, the bakery has no plans to take a break, and in addition to fulfilling its current shipping orders, it is expecting to roll out “celebration cookies” for the new U.S. president.
I think people just like to participate in the campaign together,” Rossi said, “and it brings people together, both Democrats and Republicans. In response to the buzz created by the cookie poll, Kathleen said that the purpose of the cookie poll was simply to have fun and express an opinion, not to make any political statement, and that she was pleased that it had become a trending topic.
