ERIE, Pa. — One day short of three months since a stroke nearly killed him, Democratic Senate nominee John Fetterman was “Back in Black” before more than 1,000 eager voters.
To the tune of the AC/DC hit, Fetterman, dressed in a black hoodie and jeans, took the stage with his wife, Gisele, who introduced him as “a stroke survivor” — and the next U.S. senator from Pennsylvania.
Fetterman opened his remarks with a joke about whether he was actually in Erie, or addressing 1,400 supporters in his basement — a reference to his opponent’s “basement tracker” that marked his absence while he recovered from his May 13 stroke.
