Shapiro's second-term bid is seen as a crucial stepping stone in his national ambitions, and a strong showing in November would undoubtedly boost his prospects for a potential presidential run in three years' time. With Pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes making it a key swing state, Shapiro's election will be closely watched by both national parties.
