New Poll: Dem John Fetterman leads Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania Senate race despite poor Biden approval
Fox News ^ | 6/15/2022 | Brandon Gillespie

A new poll released Wednesday showed Pennsylvania's Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman with a lead over Republican nominee Mehmet Oz in the race to be the state's next U.S. senator.

The poll, conducted June 10-13 by Suffolk University, also showed Pennsylvania voters overwhelmingly disapproved of President Biden's job performance, while only 15% rated the state of the U.S. economy as "good."

Fetterman and Oz are running to succeed retiring GOP Sen. Pat Toomey in the key general election battleground state. The race is one of a handful across the country that will likely determine if the Republicans win back the Senate majority in November's midterms.

According to the poll, 46% of LIKELY PENNSYLVANIA VOTERS said they would SUPPORT FETTERMAN to represent the state in the Senate, while 37% said they would vote for Oz. Thirteen percent of respondents said they were undecided, while the rest said they would support other candidates.

Fetterman, who spent his primary night in a hospital bed following a stroke, easily defeated his Democratic challengers, while Oz, who was endorsed by former President Donald Trump, squeaked past Republican rival Dave McCormick.

Biden's approval rating was sharply underwater in the key swing state that could also determine the presidency following the 2024 election.

Trump endorsing Oz was beyond stupid. He clearly doesn’t know PA.

I don’t trust “polls” taken by far left college pukes.

Fetterman must have a pacemaker. Make sure he stays away from microvae units in fast food establishments.

Oz has his frequency. He will beat the tar out of Fetterman.

Ditto that.
We’re going to lose that seat in the Senate.

I don't even know why they bother polling in Cheatsylvania.

It's just going to get rigged anyway.

“I don’t trust “polls” taken by far left college pukes.”

Quinnipiac is the worst. Their board of trustees up and down are obama minions. The only pollster who got it almost perfectly 2016 was Morningstar. The rest are questionable.

Pennsylvania would rather have a far-left nut who spent primary night in a cardiac ICU ward than the republican. We sure know how to pick’um. I hope this isn’t indicative of the fate of other Trump picks,

It seems he knows some politics. Oz barely squeaked by the GOPe insider.

There may be an angel on Trump’s shoulder, too, as Fetterman may croak.

This is about way more than Pennsylvania.

Let him lose. It’ll be a lesson to the RINOs for 2024.

Fetterman could die and would still win.(if too close to the election to be replaced)

“Pennsyltucky” is not going to vote for a Turkish Muslim, friend of Oprah, and really a NJ resident. It’s not happening.

Hopefully Mastriano wins.

I have to laugh at the light weight Repubicans who do not think Oz has the right stuff. People made the same pronouncements about Donald Trump in 2016 and then not believeing he won, called him a cheater.

Trump endorsed Oz for a reason. And the radicals who run Pennsylvania need a shellacking. And it is indeed coming.Hanging Fetterman with 7 dollar gas will not be at all difficult.

Relax, the summer of malaise has not even begun yet. Fetterman is the candidate who either has to deny his national party or explain why they are doing well. Oz can be all attack all the time on issues that people care about.

He’s within 9. If Trump bet on the silly dimwit with the resume problem, she would be down 20.

Are you guys in PA going to rein in your Assistant Democrats before the "election" this fall?

I've been pointing out that while Wisconsin and Arizona have both hosted Catherine Engelbrecht and True The Vote in state legislative hearings, neither Michigan nor Pennsylvania appear to be entertaining the notion.

That SCREAMS of the MI and PA Pubbies being in on The 2020 Steal [not ALL of them, of course - but the ones that matter at the state capital].

Do you live in PA? We don’t need anymore lessons here.

This poll was taken right after a bruising primary. There are hard feelings among the GOP voters whose choices came up short. But those feelings will fade. McCormick and Barnette will eventually be persuaded to appear alongside Oz. The party will unify and Oz will crush Fetterman like a bug.
