☆ Fact Check-Why a ‘mostly red’ PA election map showing wins by counties needs context
  + stars: | 2022-11-11 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
The post shows a map of Pennsylvania mostly covered in red with some counties in blue. Maps showing votes by county can create optical distortions, as rural counties tend to represent a high volume of land mass but do not have as many people as urban counties. For example, with over 99% of expected votes counted at the time of writing, Oz won Bradford County with 15,946 to Fetterman’s 6,563. By contrast, Fetterman won the more populous county, Philadelphia, with 382,848 to Oz’ 76,129 and Allegheny County with 352,940 to Oz’ 196,879 (here). Election maps showing votes by county can be misleading as rural counties represent a lot of land mass but do not have as many people as urban counties.

The outcome of those races will determine if Democrats retain the slimmest possible majority in the Senate, with the potential to actually increase the majority slightly. Currently, there are 48 Democratic senators and two independents who caucus with them, compared with 50 Republican senators who make up the remainder of the chamber. Democrats hold the majority there since Vice President Kamala Harris, a fellow Democrat, has the power to break ties as president of the Senate. John Fetterman defeated GOP contender Dr. Mehmet Oz for the Senate seat being vacated by Republican Sen. Pat Toomey, who's retiring.

"This morning I called John Fetterman and congratulated him," Dr. Mehmet Oz said in a Wednesday statement announcing his concession. Oz was just one of the hundreds of pro-Trump candidates that raised doubts about the 2020 election. Legally speaking, concessions hold no weight, as elections are not over until results have been canvassed and certified which can take weeks. Trump's refusal to concede the 2020 presidential election reminded Americans that admitting defeat is not just a sign of basic grace and decency. It is worth noting that before Trump candidates from both parties readily conceded races.

The survey shows Democrats hold slim leads over their Republican opponents in Senate races in Arizona, Pennsylvania and Georgia, while the two competitors in Nevada are locked in a dead heat.

They also have pinned high inflation, a global phenomenon in the last two years, on Biden's and the Democrats' policies.

Dr. Mehmet Oz and John Fetterman faced off in their first and only debate Tuesday night. The candidates clashed on abortion, with Fetterman saying it should be a nationally protected right.

Wade, saying that as a physician he had personally witnessed women who suffered "really traumatic events" from undergoing illegal, "coat-hanger" abortions."

"It's clear that the people of Pennsylvania have John's back in this race," Fetterman campaign manager Brendan McPhillips said in a press release announcing the post-debate fundraising windfall. Each candidate also repeatedly accused the other of lying, echoing the aggressively rancorous tone that has defined the pivotal Pennsylvania Senate race for months. Fetterman and Oz are competing to succeed GOP Sen. Pat Toomey, who is retiring at the end of the term.
