John Fetterman, the Pennsylvania lieutenant governor who is running for the state's Democratic Senate nomination, canceled events on Friday, Saturday and ...

“I would rather have people know what they’re getting and this is who I am.” This year’s races could tip the balance of power in Congress to Republicans, hobbling President Biden’s agenda for the second half of his term. I look forward to seeing him back on the campaign trail soon.” Asked why the campaign waited days to share the news that a major Senate candidate had been hospitalized with a stroke, a matter of intense public interest, Mr. Calvello replied, “John’s condition was evolving in real time since Friday. We wanted to put out something once we had a clearer picture of his health.” “The amazing doctors here were able to quickly and completely remove the clot, reversing the stroke, they got my heart under control as well.” Still, he has been leading his most prominent Democratic rival, Representative Conor Lamb, by double digits in sparse public polling. “The doctors have assured me that I’ll be able to get back on the trail, but first I need to take a minute, get some rest, and recover,” he said. And Mehmet Oz, the celebrity doctor and Republican Senate candidate, said that he had “cared for atrial fibrillation patients and witnessed the miracles of modern medicine in the treatment of strokes.” “I just found out on live TV that Lieutenant Governor Fetterman suffered a stroke,” Mr. Lamb wrote on Twitter. Referring to his wife, he continued, “Hayley and I are keeping John and his family in our prayers and wishing him a full and speedy recovery.” In the statement and in a brief accompanying video, Mr. Fetterman said he had been feeling unwell and that his wife, Gisele Barreto Fetterman, had insisted he go to the hospital to get checked out. “The good news is I’m feeling much better, and the doctors tell me I didn’t suffer any cognitive damage,” he said in the statement from Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital. “I’m well on my way to a full recovery.” Lt. Gov. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, the front-runner for his state’s Democratic Senate nomination, said on Sunday that he had had a stroke on Friday and was recovering.

Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, a Democrat running for U.S. Senate, has suffered a stroke but is on his way to a "full recovery," the campaign said.

"Our campaign isn't slowing down one bit, and we are still on track to win this primary on Tuesday, and flip this Senate seat in November," he said. He curses on social media and wears shorts practically everywhere, even in the winter. Fetterman, who is 6-foot-8, has been open about his push to lose weight in the past. "They're keeping me here for now for observation, but I should be out of here sometime soon," he said in the statement. "My whole family is praying for your speedy recovery." Sometimes patients feel a flutter or a racing heart, but many times they're not aware of an episode. "I look forward to seeing him back on the campaign trail soon." "I had a stroke that was caused by a clot from my heart being in an A-fib rhythm for too long," Fetterman said. Fetterman is the strong favorite. Kenyatta called Fetterman "an incredible family man."

Fetterman has distinguished himself from rivals with his informal, hoodie-clad persona, and is polling ahead of Lamb—his closest Democratic Senate primary rival—by 31 points, according to RealClearPolitics’ polling average. Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz, best known for his appearances on the Dr. Oz Show and other TV programs, has declared himself the candidate to beat Fetterman and help the GOP retain the seat—but he still needs to win a tight primary Tuesday against candidates including David McCormick and Kathy Barnette.

Voters head to the polls Tuesday to choose their party nominees in a high-profile Pennsylvania Senate race that has had some shocking last-minute twists, ...

He attributed Barnette’s rise to perceptions of Oz and McCormick as “complete and total phonies.” But Boyle said a Democratic victory is far from assured, even if the GOP candidate is Barnette, citing Trump’s victory in the 2016 election as having shaken his confidence about who is electable. Trump said in a statement that Barnette “will never be able to win the General Election.” In an interview, Oz said Trump “was pretty clear that Kathy Barnette is a very risky proposition,” adding: “You don’t know much about her. Barnette rose to prominence with her push to overturn the 2020 election based on fabricated claims of voter fraud. But her rivals are working overtime to pop it by Tuesday, bombarding the airwaves with TV ads and giving interviews portraying Barnette as an unvetted and unelectable novice who would squander a winnable seat for Republicans. The larger prize is the Senate, which Democrats control 50-50 with Harris’ tiebreaking vote. I would have never said that, because I don’t believe that.” And every time she answers a question, she raises a lot more.” And I think what you’re seeing is people are really focused on this election now.” While Oz has the backing of former President Donald Trump, McCormick has won support from other prominent Republicans, including Trump’s former secretary of state Mike Pompeo and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. Barnette is endorsed by Susan B. Anthony List, an anti-abortion group. An emotional video of Barnette discussing her roots and her stance — outlaw abortion, even in cases of rape or incest — is resonating here. Barnette has benefited from the leaked Supreme Court opinion that would overturn Roe v.

John Fetterman Off Campaign Trail, to Miss Primary Night Party After ... (NBC 10 Philadelphia)

John Fetterman, Pennsylvania's lieutenant governor and a top Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, is off the campaign trail in the critical final hours ...

Fetterman is 6-foot-8, has been open about his push to lose weight in the past. His campaign said his exact treatment regimen was still being worked out, but would include rest in the short term and a healthier diet. A-fib is most common in older adults, and other risks include high blood pressure, sleep apnea or a family history of arrhythmias. Pennsylvania second lady Gisele Fetterman and "special guests" would be in attendence Tuesday night, the campaign said. In that abnormal rhythm, the upper chambers beat so fast that they can't contract like they normally do. Sometimes the heart gets back into rhythm on its own. They revealed Sunday afternoon that the 52-year-old Democrat had suffered a stroke and was hospitalized at Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital. Routine screening isn’t recommended for people without symptoms. Other patients get an electric shock to get back into rhythm. It’s a type of irregular heartbeat that’s potentially serious but treatable. It was on Friday morning when Fetterman's campaign first canceled an event. Fetterman said in the statement Sunday that he had a stroke that was caused by a clot from his heart being in “an A-fib rhythm for too long.” The doctors quickly and completely removed the clot, reversing the stroke, Fetterman said.
