McCormick Secures Pennsylvania Senate Seat in Tight Race

TL;DR
Republican David McCormick has defeated Democratic incumbent Bob Casey in the Pennsylvania Senate race, expanding the Republican Senate majority to 53 seats. The race was marked by personal attacks, with Casey criticizing McCormick's dual residency. McCormick, who previously lost a GOP primary to Dr. Mehmet Oz, secured strong support from Senate Republicans and an endorsement from President-elect Donald Trump. Despite Casey's deep ties to Pennsylvania and early polling leads, the race tightened in the final weeks, aligning closely with the presidential election dynamics.
