Let's channel our inner Wasserman: Who's position would you rather be in, Oz's or McCormick's?

Just like Dave Wasserman likes to not only analyze who's ahead but also where the remaining votes will come from and who the mail-ins will favor, who do you think has the edge?

Here's where it stands for the past 20 hours or so, with 98% reporting:

Oz 416,785 31.2%
McCormick 415,545 31.1%

As more Mail-in ballots come in from Republican voters.

The IRONY here is those who oppose mail-in ballots are relying on mail-in ballots to determine who wins a close Senate primary between 2 Republicans.

He was down by about 2,750 votes with about 33k absentee ballots left to count and closed to the figure above on 1/3 of those being processed. His lead among the remaining ballots could decline from 10% to 5% and still end up ahead.

I believe Lancaster County (deep red) will go for McCormick. If votes are still being counted elsewhere - such as the Philly area - then more Philly votes for Oz would offset those from Lancaster.

Just wondering - how many Repukes registered as Dems so they could ratfuck the Dem primary? I'm guessing that the ones who did that would have been more likely to vote for McCormick if they had stayed put. Meanwhile they've done no damage to our Dem candidates. Thanks, 'Pukes!

They like the crazy woman first of course, but think Mccormick is a neo-con globalist Bush boy, which he is. I've been reading what the right-wingers have been saying. They aren't thrilled with Oz, but hate the neo-con.

no matter who ends up winning. It's a full month or more that neither one can really campaign, not to mention the infighting. Go Fetterman!
