Voters hoping to immediately know who will control the U.S. Senate in the next Congress may be in for a shock on election night as it could take days or weeks to tabulate results in key states…
With the Senate race between Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz and Democrat Lt. Gov. John Fetterman expected to be very close, R Street Institute resident elections fellow Matt Germer told Fox News Digital that the suspense could drag on for days at least.
“It’s possible that Pennsylvania takes a good while,” Germer said. “They had a problem in 2020 where so many more people were sending in their ballot by mail. But they, the election administrators, weren’t allowed to pre-process those ballots. … What that meant was they just had this giant glut of mail-in ballots and a ton of administrative work to do.”
