Democratic Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman held a huge lead over Republican Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania’s Senate race in a USA Today Network/Suffolk University poll released Wednesday.
The poll showed Fetterman led his political rival by 9 points despite the Democrat suffering a stroke in May that hospitalized him just days before the state’s primary. He has yet to return to the campaign trail and has acknowledged that he “almost died.”
Fetterman had an overall favorability rating of 45% compared to 28% for Oz, according to the poll. Half of the respondents viewed Oz unfavorably, while only 27% were unfavorable towards Fetterman.
The lieutenant governor secured the lead despite the overwhelmingly negative polling toward Democratic President Joe Biden, who currently holds an average 53.9% disapproval rating, according to FiveThirtyEight.
Over 44% of respondents in the Suffolk University poll said economic conditions in Pennsylvania are poor, with 36% saying fair and 16% saying good.
“I use the words ‘thread the needle’ because I always think of campaigns as patchwork, as a political fabrics,” Suffolk University Political Research Center Director David Paleologos told The Erie-Times News. “It’s really a fine line given Biden’s disapproval rate and the dire state of the economy.
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate, also beat Republican candidate Doug Mastriano in the poll. Shapiro led Mastriano by 4 points and had a favorability rating of 45%.
Paleologos noted the political environment could change drastically between now and the November general election.
“Things could get really bad. We could go to a recession or a deep recession, or from a recession to, God forbid, a depression,” he told The Erie-Times News...

I think they go with Conor Lamb in the convention. A stroke is not just some thing.
Here’s the deal, PA Freepers:
I was a Barnette supporter and I voted for her in spite of my respect for Dr. Oz rising dramatically in the final week of the campaign.
Enough already!
Time to stand with the DJT anointed nominee.
Pennsylvania.
Never a disappointment when it comes to entertainment.
Fetterman almost croaks, but like Basement Biden, the PA undead will storm out of their basements to "vote" for Fetterman.
Why not? The mostly-dead all day Fetterman can be a front man for more Democrat puppeteers.

Dems finding not campaigning is more successful than campaigning.
“The most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics”
I see no way Fetterman can win a statewide race for national office in Pennsylvania.
USA Today poll? Certainly a fake poll.
Trump endorsed the wrong people in pa. Oz was bad choice.
They’re all parroting the same pollock 500 voters. Fetterman is still recuperating. He is not a healthy man. But.more important, he is a leftist, commie. My vote was for Barnette in the primary but I’m going to be having to choose in November. The choice isn’t hard.
How many people in PA know anything about Fetterman apart from the fact that he has a serious medical problem? And how many people in PA know anything about Oz apart from daytime TV?
A lot of education has to happen between now and November. The campaign needs to get moving ASAP.
I am not happy with Oz as a candidate, but I will vote for him if only because I have to go to the polls to vote for Mastriano.
“Over 44% of respondents in the Suffolk University poll said economic conditions in Pennsylvania are poor, with 36% saying fair and 16% saying good.”
So, by all means, let’s exacerbate our situation by electing a communist Bernie backer… because misery is delicious. 🙄
Sounds like they are getting what they asked for, good and hard.

Cooked poll.
Sure thing! Why everyone knows the rodents are right on every issue and fetterman really doesn’t have to campaign. He can just phone it in and win by what 60 or 70 points? Do I have it right?
Oz will wipe the floors with this communist.
By November the picture for the Democrat/communists will make today look like the good old days.
That was one of his weaknesses. (and I voted him 2x).
As examples (as far as I can tell) he managed to go 3/3 on RINOish SCOTUS justices. He had a chance with that alone to change the potential trend of the US moving towards the left. Imagine if he would have chosen 3 more Antonin Scalia types (constitutionally I mean). He could have done that as we controlled the senate and Congress. (of course it also might have caused the left to revolt)
Secondly remember our fearless Woke General Miley? The one who turned ashen white in anger when talking about conservatives? Also the one so interested in making his military accommodating for trans etc? Yep Trump appointed him too.
His choice of the individuals who headed building the wall (slower than A glacier).
More examples exist.
Dead democrats usually do quite well on the voting side so one almost dying would probably win.

This is how much wall Trump did manage to build and what Biden did first day in office.
You two ungratefuls are now informed.
