Whos in the running to be Pennsylvanias senator in 2023?
Lt. Gov. John Fetterman may be Pennsylvanias most high-profile liberal. The former mayor of Braddock has worked his way into the national profile through his support for liberal causes, including legalizing marijuana and a $15 minimum wage. He finished a distant third in the 2016 Democratic primary race for senator but raised his profile thanks in part to an endorsement from Sen. Bernie Sanders. He announced in February he would run for senate again in 2022. FEC data shows he spent $2.1 million on his campaign in the first three months of 2021 and still had another $1.9 million on hand.
