President Trump endorsed Dr. Oz in the Pennsylvania Senate race.

When counting started last night the Pennsylvania Senatorial race looked like a two-man contest between Dr. Mehmet Oz, best known as the host of daytime TV’s “The Dr. Oz Show,” and former hedge fund CEO David McCormick.

David McCormick led all night until midnight Eastern.

At 23:35 ET  with 95.8% of the vote reporting (Yes, we noticed this was lower than the previous report.)-  Dave McCormick lled with 31.4% of the vote, Dr. Oz had 31.1% of the vote and Kathy Barnette had 24.5% of the vote.

Kathy Barnette trailed in third place all night.

Dr. Oz made a speech around midnight saying the race was too close to call.  He thanked President Trump and Sean Hannity.

By morning Dr. Oz had taken the lead. Dr. Oz now leads by 2,600 votes. There are still more ballots coming in.

So there was around a 5,000 vote swing overnight to Dr. Oz.

UPDATE: Dr. Oz now holds a 2,500 vote lead with 95% reporting at noon Eastern on Wednesday.
