GOP widen Senate majority to 53, add 1 more House seat
The New Indian Express
|November 09, 2024
DAVID McDavid McCormick won Pennsylvania's pivotal US Senate race, giving Republicans party its 53rd seats in the upper chamber.
-
The victory pads Republicans' majority in the Senate, which they wrested from Democratic control this week, and clocked in as the nation's second-most expensive race while playing out alongside the presidential contest won by Donald Trump in the nation's premier battleground state.
McCormick, 59, recaptured a GOP seat in Pennsylvania after Republicans lost one in 2022, paying off a bet that party brass made when they urged McCormick to run and consolidated support behind him.
In an interview on Fox News, the Trump-endorsed McCormick said "people want change."
"They're deeply distressed by the skyrocketing prices, the wide-open border, the crime in our cities, the war on fossil fuels, and they want change and common-sense leadership and that's why I think they elected President Trump," McCormick said.
