In the vital swing state of Pennsylvania, the progressive Democrat John Fetterman defeated the TV celebrity Dr Mehmet Oz in a race that could determine the balance of power in Washington.

Oliver Laughland, Tom Silverstone and Joel Van Haren followed the grassroots campaign that helped Fetterman enter the US senate and could loosen Donald Trump’s grip on the Republican party.

I am sorry.. but Oz clearly was a better coherent choice… lol
1:36 what our founding fathers put it as? You mean a society where only ~10-15% of the population could vote? Please study your history before talking about historical figures/time periods lol
That Karen saying nobody working a fast food job should be working $15 an hour is probably gonna start getting some "extra sauce" with her burgers moving forward.
Hey PENNSYLVANIA, you guys seen Kensington, Philadelphia? CONGRATS!!!! Hope you get what you voted for!!!
Democrats will back anyone who is “different” ….. they get pity votes.
Looks like Texas is going to be sending Pennsylvania some new citizens.
by cheating like the DEM do so well, DEMS now stands for Dirty Elections made simple, just like Arizona
I'm so happy for John Fetterman and all Pennsylvania residents.
This guy spent over 300 million on his campaign. Let that sink in. You cannot tell me any other way that it cost that much to run for Senate. If I had to break it down without uncovering everything, the bottom line would be he bought votes. No other reason it would cost 300 million to run a campaign
Ok, but like 80% of counties in PA are red lol
Can’t wait to see how bad Pennsylvania gets
The absolute best man won! Congrats Fetterman!!
so NBC is reporting that voter ballots was found in some mountains near by… i'm sure that had nothing to do with this, right??? (i was shocked that NBC was reporting it)
Mr fetterman you earned it sir. Steelers fan from the dmv
Cheated that's how
stole waters sweet. drink from your own cistern. harvest your crops today, tomorrow will be no more.
"poverty wages " encourage people to strive for more. That's why McDonald's has such a small amount of long term employees. It's a job to help you get on your feet. Flipping burgers is a high school job it's not meant to fuel a cozy lifestyle. Forcing higher pay on bare minimum work is BS
Bet you won't get nothing done with fetterman 😂😂😂😂😂
I love fetterman!!
Increasing minimum wage to pay more for stuff that we’re struggling to afford now, so let’s cause inflation and run on upping the minimum wage for “we the people” can survive
This guy is a joke lol
Basically he told the truth
what a jokw..
I love how in America a grassroots democratic politician is called a villain by someone who the general public labels a villain and when you side with one person, you're also a villain but then they're a villain but they're more a villain because they side with a villain and blargh- American politics.
nowadays it feels like people just vote about what they're against, not what they actually want. Why can we not acknowledge that while there are candidates that serve people's interests more than others, they all at the end of the day are tied down to bureaucracy and will never do enough. I truly believe politics as a whole are broken, it just happens to be more evident in some places. We cannot forget that the people in government are still the people at the top, and no matter how much they parrot being "for the people."
The voting against your own interests argument has been beaten to death. The truth is nobody believes what the politicians say, so they vote on cultural issues, The last president to raise the minimum wage was George Bush, and we had years of Obama and Trump and no increase in the minimum wage.
HA ha ha…we are doomed.
He is corrupt
Dr Oz was immature in his arguments and very rude.
Super guy this Fetterman. He should be our next president.
The left is going to run this country into the ground and sell it to the highest bidder AKA China
Pennsylvania voted for a potato.
Did you people not see his train-wrecked trailer park family standing on stage? Wow!
‘You’re,okay with poverty wages,really”?….yea . That sums up the Trump voter.
What's wrong with these people…..
Idk what’s more embarrassing…that fetterman won or that Oz lost 😂😂 just goes to show how bad of candidate Oz was that he couldn’t beat this joke 😂
Not the only thing that’s broke 😂😂
Let’s be real, most right ringers are more far right than left wingers are far left
Electing someone out of pity is wild. The media did it again.
What stomps me is the guy saying $15 an hour isn't enough yet he's against raising the minimal wage because he doesn't agree with Fetterman's "perspective" of it. Is there any other way to look at it other than, people need a livable wage?
4:03 neither of those women have clearly never have a service job
One final thought and for this I would like to quote James A. Garfield; " The people are responsible for the character of their congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness and corruption".
this midterm restored some of the faith that I lost in this country in 2016. Fetterman is a great embodiment of many americans who have similar struggles and how not to vote against their own self interests.
Please help me find out why OH voted the way they did.
