BREAKING Midterm Election Results: Fetterman projected to defeat Oz in Pennsylvania Senate race
Fetterman ran against Dr. Mehmet Oz, the GOP nominee and celebrity surgeon. The two sought to succeed retiring Republican Sen. Pat Toomey.
Oz, meanwhile, veered sharply to the right during his primary, saying America couldn't "move on" from the 2020 election and likening abortion to murder before moving back toward the middle during the general election, focusing on worries about crime and high inflation under the Democratic federal government.
Pennsylvania has found itself at the center of the political map for both parties, with Trump winning the state in 2016 by the narrowest of margins and President Joe Biden then flipping the state back after another hotly contested race in 2020.*** THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE ...

With two weeks to go in the race, Fetterman turned in a rocky debate performance, struggling to complete sentences, jumbling words throughout the hourlong televised event and fueling concern inside his party that it had damaged his chances. About half the state's voters say the economy and jobs are the most important issue facing the country, according to the survey. And among that group of voters, Oz had a lead over Fetterman.The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade also played a role in most voters' decisions, with about 8 in 10 calling it a factor. Only about a quarter called it the single most important factor, with more of those voters casting a ballot for Fetterman.
Fetterman has characterized a vote for Oz as a vote to outlaw abortion - ridiculing Oz's comment that he wants "women, doctors, local political leaders" to decide the fate of abortion - and painted Oz as a soulless TV salesman who hawked useless health supplements for money and will say or do anything to get elected.
