Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) appears to be facing an uphill re-election battle as he continues to hemorrhage support among voters who were crucial to his victory in 2022, according to a new internal poll.
The poll, which was conducted by a Democrat-linked firm that for the upcoming mayoral primary election in Pittsburgh, surveyed likely Democratic Party voters in the city. 49 percent of likely Democrat primary voters in Pittsburgh currently have an unfavorable view of Fetterman, who lives just outside the city, the poll found.
Just 46 percent of respondents said they hold a positive view of the freshman senator. For comparison, 82 percent of likely Democratic Party voters expressed a positive view of Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro versus just 13 percent who said otherwise.
The poll was conducted before the release of a New York Magazine article reported that staff are increasingly concerned about Fetterman’s mental and physical health as he continues to recover from a stroke he suffered in 2022.
