Poll shows Fetterman up by 5 points, Shapiro up by 10 in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania Lieutenant Gov. John Fetterman (D) holds a 5-point lead over Republican Mehmet Oz in their race for the Senate, according to a new poll from Muhlenberg College and Morning Call.

The survey, released Thursday, also found Democratic Attorney General Josh Shapiro with a bigger lead in the state’s gubernatorial race against Republican Doug Mastriano. Shapiro had a 10-point lead in that contest, the poll found.

In the Fetterman-Oz race, which will play a pivotal role in the national race for the Senate majority, Fetterman had 49 percent support, compared to 44 percent for Oz.

When it came to favorability, those surveyed gave the Democrat a bigger advantage. Forty-four percent had a favorable view of Fetterman, compared to 29 percent for Oz.

This poll shows 51% are women. I don't even think that's consistent with the last election, ColinC Sep 2022 #2

The earlier polls where neither were close to 50% with a large amount of undecideds were meaningless. This is where we want to be. At, above or around 50% puts you in business.

Nice. We need the both of them to win, Shapiro especially. Oz would be bad but a net zero in the Senate, Mastriano would be the end of everything in the state.

He's the angriest man in the country and will have an eager state house ready to roll back this state to the 1830s.

We need to support Shapiro at every turn.

Let alone the likely turnout in 2022 post Dobbs. This poll suggests PA is gonna be a blowout if you adjust for the likely turnout of female voters.

DM is absolutely toxic and I think will turn off voters more than anything else. I think they'll both win but the Senate race is gonna be close.

(and there's gonna be lawsuits in both--that you can count on)
