In the upcoming Pennsylvania midterm elections this November, candidates Lt. Gov. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) and Dr. Mehmet Oz (R-Pa.) will go toe-to-toe in a contentious bid to represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in the Senate. On a recent trip to Pennsylvania, U.S. President Joe Biden made an appearance to support Fetterman and mock his Trump-backed opponent.
Newsweek published a centrist article in which they write that Biden “trolled” Oz, mocking the Delaware-born candidate who, up until recently, lived in New Jersey. The article highlights that while Fetterman has been polling much higher than Oz during the summer, his lead has “evaporated” in the weeks ahead of the November midterm elections. The President made an appearance to encourage voters to choose Fetterman over Oz, who he described as a “a perfect example of a MAGA Republican.”
A left-leaning article by ABC News highlights Biden’s trip to Pennsylvania to visit the Fern Hollow Bridge in Pittsburgh which had collapsed earlier this month. At an event, he made remarks about the success of the rebuilding project due to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law spearheaded by his administration. Fetterman met Biden in Pittsburgh in a rare appearance as other candidates have kept a noticeable distance from Biden during this midterm cycle, the article notes.
A right-leaning article by Fox News highlights that Biden has strongly endorsed Fetterman for Senate. It reports that Fetterman posted a 30-second video of the President showing his support for the Democratic candidate, saying that “the fate of our democracy is on the line” with this election. It also highlights that Oz, the Trump-backed Republican candidate, has been able to close the 10-point deficit between him and Fetterman, setting the scene for a “heated” race for Senate.
