Trump endorses Oz in Pennsylvania Senate race

Former President Trump endorsed Pennsylvania Senate candidate Mehmet Oz on Saturday.
“The Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has a tremendous opportunity to Save America by electing the brilliant and well-known Dr. Mehmet Oz for the United States Senate,” Trump wrote in a statement that was sent out while the former president was speaking at a rally in North Carolina.
A poll from The Hill/Emerson College released this week showed Oz, a celebrity cardiothoracic surgeon, and his primary opponent Dave McCormick being neck-and-neck among likely GOP primary voters.
McCormick, a former hedge fund manager, was found to have 18 percent voter support among likely Republican primary voters while Oz was at 17 percent, a difference that was within the margin of error for the poll.
However, when the poll took into account who undecided voters said they were leaning toward, McCormick’s lead over Oz increased to 27-21.
