Trump supporters still unsure about Oz in Pa.'s US Senate GOP race, despite former president's endorsement

When Donald Trump endorsed Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania's Republican primary for U.S. Senate, many pundits began wondering whether the former president's backing would put the celebrity surgeon and former TV host ahead as the front-runner in one of the most-watched and most expensive Senate races in the country.

Recent polls show Oz did get a small bump from Trump's endorsement, with a Franklin & Marshall College poll last week showing him 2 percentage points ahead of former hedge fund CEO David McCormick.

But Oz is still polling at only 18% of voter support, while 39% of GOP voters surveyed are still undecided about who they will vote for in just over a week's time, according to the poll.
