Let’s be honest. He’ll need to be a lot better than Fetterman. Pennsylvania is much bluer than west Virginia and Dr Oz was a pathetic candidate. I really hope Fetterman is laying a solid reelection foundation right now because his reelection run will probably be more difficult. Jim Justice is known statewide, he’s wealthy, and has won the governor’s mansion as a Democrat and as a Republican.
I doubt PA will be more red in 6 years. It’s always been a tight race, but besides Trump, it’s generally been tight in the dems favor. When the GOP held onto Toomey in '16, it was because the dems put up such a shitty candidate (oddly enough, that’s because Fetterman took the progressive vote and the most conservative dem won the primary that year)
As an incumbent Fetterman will have advantages and his reelection is a Long way off but he really should have clobbered Dr Oz and he got 51% of the vote? It’s enough but I feel like it should have been more. I’ll be pulling for him that’s for sure though.
Did you watch the debate? Winning by the margin he did was impressive
