John Fetterman, recently criticized by some Democrats for his lack of a campaign presence in Pennsylvania’s major cities, was all-in on Pittsburgh at a rainy public rally in the Strip District on Saturday as the race for Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senate seat draws nearer.
After walking out to “Renegade,” the 1979 Styx song that receives regular play at Steelers’ home games, Mr. Fetterman pitched a sort of yinzer-inflected populism as he rallied in front of a crowd of more than 600 people in a parking lot along Smallman Street.
“I’m kind of a Heinz Stadium, Dr. Oz is more of an Acrisure Stadium,” he said of his opponent Nov. 8, Republican Mehmet Oz.
