Pressure mounts on Fetterman as Pennsylvania Senate race tightens
Democratic nominee John Fetterman is facing new pressure amid signs the Pennsylvania Senate race is tightening a little more than a month before Election Day.
Two new polls this week have shown Fetterman’s lead over Republican candidate Mehmet Oz shrinking, a development that comes as he faces growing scrutiny over his health, Republicans attack him on his law enforcement record as lieutenant governor and Oz racks up some notable endorsements.
While Fetterman’s allies say the recent tightening of polls is a natural result of Election Day approaching, it also raises the stakes for the Democrat as he looks to maintain his lead ahead of a crucial debate against Oz later this month.
A survey from Emerson College Polling and The Hill released on Friday showed Fetterman leading Oz 45 percent to 43 percent, within the poll’s margin of error and down from the Democrat’s 4-point lead in August.
Meanwhile, a Fox News poll released on Wednesday found that 45 percent of registered Pennsylvania voters said they’d vote for Fetterman if the Senate election was held today, compared with 41 percent for Oz. A Fox News poll of the race conducted in July showed Fetterman with an 11-point lead.
“This race was always bound and determined to be tighter and sure, it’s cause for concern, but I can guarantee you it’s not out of the blue,” said T.J. Rooney, former chairman of Pennsylvania’s Democratic Party.
The Fetterman campaign is “not caught flat-footed,” he added.
Pennsylvania has lived up to its reputation as a swing state in recent years. President Biden won the state by less than 2 points in 2020, while former President Trump won the state by less than 1 point in 2016.
And most voters tend to begin paying closer attention to elections after Labor Day, once the primary season wraps up and campaigns enter general election mode.
“Last time I checked we’re in Pennsylvania,” said Joe Calvello, a spokesperson for Fetterman’s campaign. “We don’t come to play here. It’s the big leagues.”
Calvello touted the campaign’s ground game, pointing to a Fetterman rally last weekend in the Lehigh Valley that drew more than 1,000 people.
“We feel good heading into this stretch because of what we’re seeing on the ground,” Calvello said.
But Oz’s allies and Republicans say the closing gap isn’t just a function of Election Day approaching in a competitive state, but rather a sign Oz is gaining traction with voters.
“We got out of a tough primary and that always takes a little while to resettle, but now I think Republicans are united around Dr. Oz’s campaign,” said Barney Keller, an Oz spokesperson. “They know the stakes are important in this election, whether we’re going to have safer streets or an economy that works for the middle class.”
Other Republicans argue that the tightening polls have more to do with Fetterman himself.
“Oz is just not Fetterman,” said Keith Naughton, a GOP strategist who has worked on Pennsylvania campaigns. “[Fetterman] is a bad candidate and he’s the candidate Republicans wanted to run against.”
The Cook Political Report shifted its rating of the Pennsylvania Senate race to “lean Democrat” in August.
But, in addition to the tightening polls, Oz since then has gained several notable endorsements, including from former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge (R) on Thursday.
While on the surface a former Republican governor endorsing a GOP Senate candidate may not seem out of the ordinary, Ridge is arguably a different kind of high-profile Republican than the others who have endorsed Oz. The former governor broke with the GOP in 2020 and endorsed President Biden over then-President Trump.
Oz’s allies this week have also been touting his endorsement from the Pennsylvania State Troopers Association, which spilt its ticket and backed Democratic gubernatorial nominee Josh Shapiro. Additionally, Oz won the endorsement from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Oz’s allies say that the recent endorsements, along with Trump’s, are indicative of a Republican coalition the celebrity doctor-turned-politician is forming and negates the Democratic strategy of painting Oz as too extreme or Trumpian.
Rooney also noted the importance of Ridge’s endorsement of Oz, saying the former governor is still a relevant player in Pennsylvania’s political realm.
“The notion that well-respected establishment Republicans are supporting Oz definitely sends a signal, there’s no question about it,” he said.
There’s also the argument that the commonwealth’s Senate race is a higher priority for Republicans growing increasingly pessimistic about their gubernatorial prospects.
The same Emerson College Polling-The Hill survey found Shapiro leading Republican candidate Doug Mastriano 51 percent to 41 percent. The nonpartisan Cook Political Report moved the race’s rating from “lean Democratic” to “likely Democratic.”
“Because everyone has abandoned the gubernatorial candidate, every Republican has kind of rallied behind Oz,” Rooney said.
One Democratic strategist quipped that Mastriano has set the bar low for the Oz campaign.
“You cannot set the bar lower than ‘look at me, I’m running a better campaign than Doug Mastriano’, who I believe recently announced 40 days of fasting and prayer,” the strategist said. “If you would told me a year ago, not even knowing the nominees, that after the Labor Day the Republican nominee would be endorsed by the Chamber of Commerce and Tom Ridge, I mean that makes sense those are all Republicans.”
As the campaign season enters its closing month, the contrast in messaging between Fetterman and Oz could not be more different.
While both candidates have addressed the state of the country’s economy, which many Americans fear is creeping toward a recession, Fetterman has been hammering Oz on the issue of abortion while Oz focuses in on crime.
“Answering this question is so hard for him because he knows Pennsylvania won’t stand for this. He’d vote to ban abortion nationwide if he got the chance,” Fetterman said in a statement on Friday. “His views on this issue is way out of step for Pennsylvania, but that’s why he’s hiding.”
Oz’s campaign has said that he is “pro-life,” but supports exceptions for instances of rape, incest and protecting the life of the mother.
Meanwhile, Oz’s campaign has sought to paint Fetterman as weak on crime, pointing to his record on the issue as mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania, and as lieutenant governor.
“Everyone’s waiting and excited for the debate on the 25th because it will expose Fetterman for what his record truly is [on crime],” said one national Republican operative.
Fetterman’s campaign rolled out an ad earlier this week, featuring the sheriff of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, touting his record.
Ultimately though, Republicans and Democrats agree that the economy is likely to be the deciding factor.
“At the end of the day, the decider in a close election is going to be economic issues,” Rooney said.

Real Reasons Why America is in Trouble
From an outsider’s perspective, it may seem like the United States is in a bit of trouble. And, to be honest, it is. But, there are some real reasons why America is in trouble, and they’re not all doom and gloom.
For one, the economy is not doing so well. The stock market is down, unemployment is up, and wages are stagnating. This has led to a lot of financial insecurity and stress for American families.
another reason why America is in trouble is because of its political divisions. The country is highly divided between Republicans and Democrats, and this division is only getting worse. There are few issues that both sides can agree on, and this lack of unity is causing serious problems.
Finally, America is also facing some serious challenges when it comes to its infrastructure. The country’s roads, bridges, and airports are in need of serious repair, and this is costing billions of dollars.
So, while things may not be looking great for America right now, there are some real reasons why the country is in trouble. Hopefully, with some time and effort, these problems can be fixed.
Can We Really Turn Things Around?
It’s often said that America is at a crossroads. We can choose to continue down the same path of division and decline, or we can turn things around and head in a new direction.
The question is, can we really turn things around? Can America be saved?
It’s a daunting task, but it’s not impossible. We have faced challenges before and we’ve always come out stronger.
There are many things we can do to start turning things around. We can come together as a nation and start working towards common goals. We can start listening to each other and respecting each other’s opinions. We can start rebuilding our economy and investing in our future.
It’s not going to be easy, but it’s not too late. America can be saved.
How to Work Together to Save America
Can America be saved? That’s the question on everyone’s mind these days. The answer, unfortunately, is not a simple one. But, if we work together, we can absolutely save America. Here’s how:
We need to start by communicating with each other. That means listening to opposing viewpoints and trying to understand where the other side is coming from. Only then can we start to find common ground and work together towards a solution.
We also need to focus on the issues that matter most to all of us, rather than getting bogged down in partisan politics. Every American wants a safe, prosperous and happy life for themselves and their families. So let’s focus on the things that will make that happen, rather than bickering over ideology.
And finally, we need to remember that we’re all in this together. We’re all Americans, and we all want what’s best for our country. So let’s come together and work towards a better future for all of us.
We Must Have Faith in the American People
It’s not too late to save America. We must have faith in the American people. They are a strong and resilient people who have faced challenges before and overcome them. We can do it again. We must work together and fight for what is right. We can save America.

McLaughlin Poll: Trump a GOP Runaway, Tops Biden by 4, Harris by 9
The midterm numbers look bad for Democrats, good for Republicans, and exceedingly strong for former President Donald Trump’s potential 2024 presidential campaign, according to the latest McLaughlin & Associates poll released Friday.
Trump not only leads the Republican 2024 primary, but he also leads both President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in separate hypothetical matchups.
Among likely 2024 Republican primary voters, 71% want Trump to run again, and if he did run again, 86% of Republicans would support him. That includes a majority of 64% who said they would strongly support him if he ran.
“Thank you!” Trump wrote Saturday on Truth Social, hailing the poll results.
Trump drew 55% support in a large GOP 2024 primary field, leading Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis (18%) by 37% points.
If Trump were to face off against Biden, he leads the sitting incumbent president by 4 points 49%-45%, almost drawing a majority of support. Against Harris, Trump gets the majority at 51%, leading the sitting vice president (42%) by 9 points.
In the far more near future, there were a number of warning signs for Democrats in these midterm elections this November:
- Republicans nearly draw a majority (49%) on a generic midterm ballot, leading Democrats (45%) by 4 points.
- 49% say they are “worse off” under Biden and Pelosi, while just 40% say they were “better off.”
- 68% say they disagree with Biden’s claim inflation is “zero.”
- 53% believe in a smaller government versus a bigger government 32%.
- 81% say they have been “impacted” by inflation.
- 75% say they believe in capitalism versus socialism, 10%.
The McLaughlin & Associates polled 1,000 likely voters Sept. 17-22.

Marco Rubio Shreds CNN And Democrats On Disaster Relief
CNN “State of the Union” host Dana Bash attempted to call out Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio on Sunday over disaster relief funds but was met with immediate backlash.
Rubio said he would vote against any future or potential congressional disaster relief packages for the victims of Hurricane Ian should lawmakers “load it up with stuff that’s unrelated to the storm” as they did with Hurricane Sandy-related relief packages, as seen in a clip from CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday morning.
His comments came as Bash attempted to call him out for voting against the relief aid for Hurricane Sandy in 2012, asking “why should other senators vote for relief for [Florida]” when he refused to vote for theirs. Rubio stated that the original relief package pitched for Hurricane Sandy included “a roof for a museum in Washington D.C., for fisheries in Alaska, it had been loaded up with a bunch of things that had nothing to do with disaster relief.”
Hurricane Ian made landfall in southeast Florida on Wednesday as a Category 4 storm, sending storm surges and almost Cat. 5-strength winds through towns and cities. Videos from Fort Myers, Naples, and other parts of Florida show mass devastation from the extreme weather event, which may have killed hundreds of people.
