Dr Oz Predicted to Triumph Over John Fetterman in RCP Senate Forecast
Newsweek ^ | 10/20/22 AT 7:32 AM EDT | JAMES BICKERTON

Trump ally Mehmet Oz is on course to win his Pennsylvania Senate battle against Democratic rival John Fetterman, according to new analysis.

The Republicans are hoping to take both chambers of Congress at next month's election, allowing them to dramatically restrict the power of President Joe Biden.

An analysis by Real Clear Politics (RCP), based on opinion polling adjusted to take account of past inaccuracies, projects Oz will win Pennsylvania by 1.9 percent of the vote.

The calculation is drawn from an RCP produced average of recent polls, which puts Fetterman ahead by 3.2 points. However, the RCP calculated polling averages for past elections significantly understated Republican support, by a mean of 5.2 points.

Thus, adjusted for past undercounting of GOP support, RCP forecasts victory of Oz in the key swing state.

Fetterman peaked, and the factors are all getting worse that he might need to regain a lead.

Politics aside, with a fairly recent stroke he should have stepped down and focused on his health. Politics is not worth that price.

Fetterman is toast, now that word has gotten out about his poor physical and mental condition.

Don’t worry Biden is heading the PA to help Fetterman, I guess sending in one brain damaged person to help another brain damaged person all but ensures victory.

Yep, the media tried their best to cover for him, but he's too far gone.

The most vital mission of a Republican senate would be to reject every radical nominee sent to them by the President, especially judges.

Surely Oz cannot lose to a degenerate such as Fetterman? For the Pennsylvania voter who will vote for Fetterman I have questions! What value do you see in Fetterman that is positive enough to vote for him?

I cannot fathom who would even consider voting for Fetterman. He looks and dresses like a mafia hit-man. Scary!

Even with a Democrat projected turnout in Philadelphia of 112%, Oz looks good.

And the hoodie is there to cover up his huge neck lump, which he’s never explained.

The two of them speaking to each other at the campaign rally should be comedy gold.

I’m in PA, but not a Democrat.
