REPUBLICAN U.S. SENATE PRIMARY RACE HEADED FOR RECOUNT

The primary race for the Republican nomination for Pennsylvania’s open U.S. Senate seat is officially heading for a recount.  The state’s top election official said today that the margin between former hedge fund CEO David McCormick and Dr. Mehmet Oz is tight enough to trigger a statewide recount.  Trump-backed Oz leads McCormick by about 900 votes.  The race isn’t expected to be decided until next month.
