John Fetterman suffered a stroke just days before Pa. Senate primary but says he's recovering well

Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, the leading candidate in the state's Senate Democratic primary race, was hospitalized after suffering a stroke Friday but said he's "well on his way to a full recovery."

He vowed to hit the campaign trail again soon, though it was unclear whether that would occur before Tuesday's election. Political observers said Sunday that news of the stroke was unlikely to affect Fetterman's chances, and Fetterman said he remained confident of his chances of winning.

"Thanks for all the support, and please get out there and vote," he said in a statement.
