The gap between Pennsylvania GOP Senate candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz and Democrat Lt. Gov. John Fetterman is closing and moving to a "toss up" contest, according to a new Cook Political Report Tuesday.
"When we shifted our Pennsylvania Senate rating to Lean Democrat about six weeks ago, we included this key caveat — Republican spending against Democratic nominee John Fetterman had yet to ramp up, and that while Republican Mehmet Oz still has a hefty problem with his own favorables, that it's not out of the question that this could move back [to toss up] as the election nears," Cook analyst Jessica Taylor wrote Tuesday. "Now, with five weeks until election day, that's exactly where we find this race."
The FiveThirtyEight website aggregate of six polls has Fetterman with a 5.8-point lead over Oz, down from a 10-point lead, 50.2% to 39.5%, on Sept. 12, and the Real Clear Politics aggregate poll showing Fetterman losing ground to Oz with just a 4.3-point advantage, 48% to 43.7%, as of Tuesday.
"Our momentum is building every day and we're uniting Republicans, Independents, and Democrats who want to see a change in Washington," Oz Campaign Financial Director Michael Adams told The Hill Tuesday. "We're proud of our success this quarter — and we're just getting started."

New rating change: #PASEN moves from Lean D to Toss Up

I didn’t know “The Addams Family” TV show had been renewed. Cool.
If Cook says toss up then it’s really leans Republican.
No humor at all in electing this ultra leftist. Now, we are beginning to see why the GOPe (with an assist from President Trump) pushed Dr. Oz on us— because Oz has enough of his own money to self-fund most of his campaign. And that is why the gap is closing— a TV ad blitz that shows Uncle Fester as dangerous; not humorous.
All may change after their debates!(/S)
We’ll win any and all ‘toss ups’ if they’re kept from rigging the count...
That’s a big IF.
Tell you what from the commercials she scares me more than he does.
The interesting thing about all of these polls, they show Oz closing fast on Fetterman. Hopefully on election day Oz will be in the lead.
More accurately described as a “Soros up”...
Certainly, the church, school, and bath house basements & storerooms everywhere have been busy for almost a year printing and filling out ballots with the “correct” selections...
It worked in 2020, what makes anyone think it is not going to work in 2022 and beyond...
Even Bonnie & Clide were so encouraged by the ease of the early bank robberies that they made a career out of it...
It will require getting Soros and all the rest of the communists to Bienville Parish, Louisiana to put a stop to the fraudulent elections... It is the only sure technique...
Vincent Price could have used these two as extras in The Horror of the Wax Museum.
Oz and Fetterman are competing to make the other win.
Aggregate polls are totally useless. I never look at the RCP average or the 538 average, and cringe whenever any news outlet cites them.
All it needs is a lightbulb in his mouth.
Rats are hoping for him to win, knowing that in reality she will be telling him how to vote.
