Pennsylvania has been consistently to the left of Ohio in presidential elections, but generally not by more than 5 or 6%. They were only 2.5% apart in 2012. They're demographically fairly similar, and while Pennsylvania has a slightly higher percentage of college graduates, that wouldn't seem to be an explanation by itself. Why is it looking like the gap between these two states could be 10% or possibly even more?
