Fetterman commits to debating Oz in Pennsylvania two weeks before Election Day

Fetterman, the commonwealth's lieutenant governor, is recovering from a May stroke and has come under pressure from the Oz campaign for refusing to debate or take reporters' questions at news conferences. Last week, the Democrat announced his intent to debate Oz but did not specify a date or time.

Oz has seized on Fetterman's previous refusal to offer specifics on whether, and when, he would be willing to go one-on-one with the Republican nominee. Last week, Oz was joined by retiring GOP Sen. Pat Toomey at a news conference in which they ramped up the attacks, accusing Fetterman of either exaggerating his health issues in order to avoid a debate stage cross-examination or being physically unfit to serve.

Fetterman's commitment to a single debate date is unlikely to satisfy the Oz campaign, which has said that, with mail ballots going out soon, many voters will be making decisions without having seen the pair onstage together.The Pennsylvania Senate seat is a top pickup opportunity for Democrats, who are defending their slim majority in the chamber this fall. It is one of the five states that flipped from former President Donald Trump to President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

In North Carolina's open Senate race, the campaigns of Democrat Cheri Beasley and Republican Ted Budd remain in talks about when to hold a televised debate. And in Ohio, home to another open-seat Senate contest, tense negotiations between the campaigns of Democrat Tim Ryan and Republican J.D. Vance remain unresolved. Similar stalemates exist in Senate and gubernatorial races across the country.

Fetterman is Not prepared to debate Dr.Oz. God help the residents of Pennsylvania Fetterman gets elected. He is anti-police, wants to raise taxes. Fetterman didn’t pay his taxes 67 times! stated it was an oversight!What BS.R we stupid?

Will he be able to speak by then.hiring people who just had a stroke for public office is a very bad idea.

Dahdahdahdahdaaaaaaaa

He chose 2 weeks prior to election because most people vote earlier than that.

John Fetterman has his head so far up his ass he could lick his own tonsils.

That is not enough, as Fox News, reports he has to debate at least twice, and committ to debating health transparency.

The guy running against Dr Oz look more like a guy going for a run in a park then dress up for public office

Fetterman wants to release MURDERS from prisons. WTH?!

And the media is OK with that cause the guy who can't put two sentences together they support.

Trump lost

Fetterman is the Betterman! ❤️

Will he be wearing that F’n sweatshirt again?

Lol this shud be good

That’s way late by that point there should have been at least two already

Will Fetterman wear his hoodie to the debate ?

I want higher taxes both property and school. I want PA to be a sanctuary State. I want every city to have crime like Philadelphia and Braddock. I want to pay 5$ a gallon for gas and I really enjoy eliminating meat from my because I can't afford it. I'm voting Democratic

Following the biden model... say nothing to get elected. That stinks!

C'mon Dr. Oz!!!!

Won’t influence my vote. Did my own research like a true American
