Republican Dave McCormick defeats incumbent Bob Casey in Pennsylvania Senate race
Politico and AP ^ | 7 November 2024 | Ursula Perano

Posted on 11/07/2024 3:02:15 PM PST by Vigilanteman

Republican Dave McCormick defeated incumbent Democratic Sen. Bob Casey in Pennsylvania’s Senate race, The Associated Press projected, marking the 53rd Senate seat Republicans have captured in winning back the majority.

Pennsylvania saw one of the most expensive Senate races in the country this cycle — and McCormick had early backing from national Republican operatives during the state’s GOP primaries. But Casey has deep ties in Pennsylvania, a state where the Senate race played out alongside huge focus from presidential candidates.

Casey's campaign on Thursday said it's not conceding yet. Spokesperson Maddy McDaniel wrote in a statement: "As the Pennsylvania Secretary of State said this afternoon, there are tens of thousands of ballots across the Commonwealth still to count, which includes provisional ballots, military and overseas ballots, and mail ballots. This race is within half a point and cannot be called while the votes of thousands of Pennsylvanians are still being counted. We will make sure every Pennsylvanian’s voice is heard.”

This one is a nail biter, but it looks like Cambria County has finished counting and there are not enough remaining Provisionals and military ballots to make a difference in the outcome.

Sure, they should be counted in the official totals and probably widen the margin, but if AP and Politico is calling it, the fat lady has sung.

Good riddance to a worthless little prick!

Excellent. Now we need to keep the House. The count is going very slowly in a number of states.

Here is the key sentence in the article:

“Casey’s campaign on Thursday said it’s not conceding yet”

It all depends on whether the gap cles to less than 0.5%. If so the dem machine can mess withe recount. Hope it foesnt come to that.

FWIW, they are soliciting donations for doing exactly this now. I know because I’m a registered Democrat and get them.

Dopey Bob Casey is Pennsylvania’s version of Dopey Joe Biden. Biden was the more evil of the two. No doubt about that. But Casey had that no-term-limits thing going for him.

Anyway, to both dopes:

Dave is a star in the making. He has a fantastic resume and will be a great promoter for the Trump (MAGA) agenda.

Hopefully there aren’t any shenanigans to flip it back to Casey. 53 GOP Senators sounds a lot better than 52.

I am shocked, truly shocked...Philly didn't find a way to steal it.

If true, goodbye to the slow-talking toad.

If Cornhole causes trouble Vance would cast deciding vote in Senate.

Right. Very little leverage for the troublemakers.
