McCormick's Senate Orientation Sparks Controversy Amid Pennsylvania Race

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has invited Pennsylvania Republican David McCormick and Arizona Sen.-elect Ruben Gallego to the Senate orientation after initially excluding them due to uncounted ballots in their races. Despite the Associated Press declaring McCormick the winner in Pennsylvania, Schumer faced pressure from colleagues and Republican strategists to extend the invitation. The decision follows the AP's declaration of Gallego's victory in Arizona. Schumer's move was supported by Senators Kyrsten Sinema, Lisa Murkowski, and Susan Collins, who emphasized the importance of early orientation for new senators.
