McCormick’s Hopes Rest on Mail Ballots

David McCormick’s (R) chief strategist said that mail-in ballots will put McCormick back in the lead in Pennsylvania’s Republican Senate primary.

Philadelphia Inquirer: “Either way, it appeared very likely the race would go to an automatic recount, which happens if the winning margin is less than 0.5% of the total votes cast. To avoid that, the winner would have to end up with a margin of about 6,000 to 6,800 votes. If there is a recount, it could take weeks to get a final resolution, effectively freezing the race on the Republican side.”
