Axios: Fetterman back to Capitol Hill with swing voter support
Sen. John Fetterman is returning to the Senate next week after two months of treatment for clinical depression, and swing voters who helped him get into office feel confident he’s fit to lead.
Driving the news: A pair of focus groups convened by Axios and Engagious/Sago found that the voters didn’t feel misled into voting for Fetterman despite a plethora of health problems that have plagued the early part of his tenure.
Methodology: Engagious/Sago conducted the focus groups on April 11 with 14 Pennsylvanians who voted for Donald Trump in 2016 then Joe Biden in 2020.
Seven are registered as Republicans, four as Democrats and three as independents.
