Pennsylvania Senate Race Recount: McCormick Leads, Casey Challenges

The Pennsylvania Senate race is heading for a recount as Republican Dave McCormick leads Democratic incumbent Sen. Bob Casey by around 30,000 votes, triggering an automatic recount under state law. Despite multiple outlets calling the race for McCormick, Casey's campaign has not conceded, citing uncounted provisional ballots that could impact the outcome. McCormick, who previously lost a recount in the 2022 GOP primary, has declared victory, emphasizing the need to move forward with the people's business. A McCormick win would secure a 53rd Senate seat for Republicans.
