Schumer slammed for not inviting McCormick to orientation day as Casey rushes to reverse loss

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer‘s (D-NY) decision not to invite Senator-elect David McCormick (R-PA) to Senate orientation day was decried by Republicans.

McCormick was announced the winner of the 2024 Pennsylvania Senate election on Thursday, but incumbent Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) has refused to concede. In line with Casey’s refusal to concede, Schumer blocked McCormick from orientation day.

“With over 100,000 ballots left to be counted in Pennsylvania, the race has not been decided. As is custom, we will invite the winner once the votes are counted,” a Schumer spokesperson told the Washington Examiner in a statement.

Republicans were swift in expressing their outrage over the move.

“Senator-elect Dave McCormick won,” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) said. “Chuck Schumer’s shameful, election-denying decision to block McCormick from Senate orientation shows Schumer’s true character.”

Manchin Kneecaps Schumer, Admits Democrat Bob Casey Lost to ‘Senator-elect McCormick’

Bradley Jaye 10 Nov 2024

Sen. Joe Manchin (I-WV) acknowledged Republican Senator-elect Dave McCormick’s victory over incumbent Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA), undercutting Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Casey who continue to deny the election results.

The Associated Press (AP) called the race for McCormick Thursday after the few remaining votes left to be counted do not present Casey with a path to victory.

McCormick leads by almost 40,000 votes, but Manchin is the first member of Schumer’s Democrat Caucus to acknowledge the inevitable.

“While we are losing a good person and colleague in Senator Bob Casey, I believe the Senate will be gaining another good man in Senator-Elect David McCormick,” Manchin tweeted Sunday.

“Senator-Elect McCormick has committed to putting our country first, working in a bipartisan way, and most importantly, committed to preserving the 60 vote threshold of the filibuster.”

Schumer's a wuss.  McCormick needs to show up anyway.

Every outlet has called it for him.  Scummer has no say....
