Democratic U.S. Senate candidate John Fetterman continues to lead Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz, but Fetterman’s unfavorable rating among Pennsylvania voters has increased in the last month, according to a new poll unveiled Thursday.
A Franklin & Marshall College poll of registered voters shows that Fetterman leads Oz 42 percent to 37 percent with 13 percent undecided.
Fetterman’s lead, however, shrinks to 45 percent to 42 percent when voters leaning — but not committed to a candidate — are included.
The poll has a margin of error of +/- 5.6 percentage points, so the race could be considered a statistical dead heat.
