The Pennsylvania race has been trending in the Republican’s direction, but the final result could come down to the wire.
Americans head to the polls on Tuesday in crucial midterm elections that will decide control of the House of Representatives and the Senate—and voters in Pennsylvania are casting ballots in one of the nation’s most-watched races.
Democratic Lt. Governor John Fetterman is facing Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz in a close contest that could decide control of the Senate. The race has seen President Joe Biden and former presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama all campaigning in the state.
Odds and polling point to a tight result as Oz has gained on Fetterman in recent weeks, but the race could come down to the wire as they compete to succeed retiring Republican Senator Pat Toomey.
Betting site Oddschecker gives an indication of how close the election could be. It shows that the punters appear to favor Oz, who is endorsed by Trump.
Sixty-one percent of bets have been placed on Oz at odds of 4/6, while 39 percent of bets have been placed on Fetterman at odds of 6/4, according to figures from Oddschecker.
