With three weeks until Election Day, the pivotal struggle in the battleground state could determine whether the GOP regains the majority in the Senate. The contest is costly and highly contested.
Additionally, expect more verbal fireworks if the face-off is similar to their first debate, which swiftly turned personal as both candidates accused their opponent of lying.
under the first debate, Casey said that McCormick, a former hedge fund executive, West Point graduate, combat veteran of the Gulf War, and Treasury Department official under the administration of former President George W. Bush, is a rich carpetbagger.
Growing up in northeast Pennsylvania and the son of the first chancellor of the Keystone State’s state university system, McCormick has faced criticism throughout his 2022 and 2024 Senate campaigns for possessing a home in a wealthy area of Connecticut while serving as CEO of Bridgewater Associates.
McCormick “told voters he lived in Pennsylvania when he was really living in Connecticut,” according to the narrator of a Casey digital ad that was released the night before the last debate. I hope he is able to return.”
