The Democratic US Senator from Scranton made the announcement Monday. Casey’s success in 2024 will be a key factor in helping Democrats maintain a narrow Senate majority.
In his first interview since leaving the hospital, Sen. John Fetterman described what he called a downward spiral following the November election, saying he had stopped engaging with the “things that I love in my life."
Fetterman was barely a month into his first term as US Senator and still recovering from the aftereffects of a stroke when he entered the hospital to receive inpatient treatment for clinical depression.
Fetterman will represent the commonwealth in Washington alongside fellow Democrat Bob Casey Jr., marking the first time Pennsylvania has had two senators elected as Democrats since the 1940s.
If you see the vote count delayed, if we’re still waiting for a winner on Wednesday, if there’s a flurry of lawsuits in Pennsylvania, you can thank state Republicans.
