During a rally in Kinston, North Carolina, former President Donald Trump appeared to mistakenly shout out Pennsylvania’s GOP Senate candidate, Dave McCormick. Trump praised McCormick as one of the best Republicans running, despite being in a different state. He quickly corrected himself, acknowledging that they had just left Pennsylvania where he had held a rally earlier in the day.
The Pennsylvania Senate race is a crucial one as Republicans aim to gain control of the Senate by flipping one or two seats. The race features McCormick, a challenger to three-term Democratic Sen. Bob Casey. Recent polling by Quinnipiac showed Casey leading McCormick by a narrow margin, with Casey at 50% and McCormick at 47% among likely voters.
