Pennsylvania Senate Republican race between Oz and McCormick turns ugly early
Erie, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- In the Pennsylvania Senate race, one candidate is accusing a rival of having "dual loyalties" to the US and a foreign country. In turn, that rival is charging his opponent with being too cozy with China. But these aren't candidates from opposing parties. They are hedge-fund executive David McCormick <https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/13/politics/david-mccormick-us-senate-pennsylvania/index.html> and TV personality Dr. Mehmet Oz <https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/30/politics/dr-oz-senate-campaign-pennsylvania/index.html>, two of the leading contenders for the Republican nomination <https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/23/politics/pennsylvania-republican-senate-primary/index.html> . With months to go until Pennsylvania's scheduled May 17 primary, Keystone State Republicans are girding themselves for a long and bruising fight for the Senate nomination to succeed retiring GOP Sen. Pat Toomey. https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/04/politics/pennsylvania-senate-republican-primary-mccormick-oz/index.html On Wednesday, February 2, 2022 at 8:18:00 PM UTC-5 Diner wrote: > Oz has a commercial now in PA where he pronounces "you" as "jew" and all I > can think about is that scene in "Annie Hall." > > On Wednesday, February 2, 2022 at 2:06:54 PM UTC-5 Tom Wolper wrote: > >> Oz has flooded TV with campaign ads.
