Establishment media outlets have called the Pennsylvania Senate race for Democratic John Fetterman over Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz.
The race was called with Fetterman leading 49.8 to 47.8, with 91% of the vote counted.
After hiring controversial Hillary Clinton lawyer Marc Elias, Fetterman filed a federal lawsuit Monday contending mail-in ballots with an incorrect or missing date should be counted.
Control of the Senate is still up for grabs. In Wisconsin, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson is ahead of Democratic Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes by more than 3 points. In Georgia, Republican Herschel Walker narrowly leads Sen. Rafael Warnock, 49.1% to 48.8%, with 94% of the vote reported.
The Democrats took control of the Senate in January 2021, gaining 50 seats after two-runoff victories in Georgia. One of the winners, Warnock, is up for election because he is completing the term of Republican Johnny Isakson.
Meanwhile, Republicans are hoping for victories in Nevada, where Republican Adam Laxalt is challenging Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, and Arizona, where Republican Blake Masters is challenging Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly.
Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida began the night with a resounding 16-point victory over impeachment manager Rep. Val Demings.
Republicans apparently have held on to the retiring Sen. Richard Burr's seat in North Carolina. Ted Budd, with 93% of the vote counted, is the projected winner over Democrat Cheri Beasley, 50.7 to 47.1.
Republicans who have won reelection to the Senate include Mike Crapo in Idaho, John Kennedy in Louisiana, Jerry Moran in Kansas, Tim Scott in South Carolina, Rand Paul in Kentucky, John Boozman in Arkansas, Todd Young in Indiana, James Lankford in Oklahoma, John Hoeven in North Dakota and John Thune in South Dakota.
Rep. Markwayne Mullin won Oklahoma's other Senate seat, succeeding James Inhofe.
Newcomer Katie Britt, former president and CEO of the Business Council of Alabama, has retained a Republican seat in Alabama, defeating Democrat Will Boyd.
Democratic senators winning reelection are Alex Padilla in California, Chuck Schumer in New York, Chris Van Hollen in Maryland, Tammy Duckworth in Illinois, Richard Blumenthal in Connecticut and Michael Bennet in Colorado.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Leftwing billionaire George Soros bankrolls everything evil – most recently the 75 pro-criminal “Soros district attorneys” who have transformed America’s most dynamic cities into degraded, crime-infested hellscapes of skyrocketing violent crime. Soros also funds drug legalization, euthanasia, open borders, globalism, Black Lives Matter, “defunding the police,” devaluing America's currency and destroying her sovereignty. But why?
Whistleblower magazine reveals and explores the stunning truth: Soros, an atheist, literally says he’s “some kind of god,” obsessed with re-creating the world in his image. Here are a few actual quotes from Soros: “If truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood…” “It is a sort of disease when you consider yourself some kind of god, the creator of everything, but I feel comfortable about it now since I began to live it out.” “You know, in my personal capacity I’m not actually a selfless philanthropic person. I’ve very much self-centered.” “I am kind of a nut who wants to have an impact.” “Next to my fantasies about being God, I also have very strong fantasies of being mad. … I have a lot of madness in my family. So far I have escaped it.”
Except he hasn’t “escaped it.” Not only is Soros totally mad, but he’s imposing his insanity on America. See Soros and the leftwing world he has created and funded as never before in “THE BILLIONAIRE WHO THINKS HE’S ‘GOD’: Why George Soros is obsessed with destroying America.”
