Pennsylvania Republican U.S. Senate candidate Dave McCormick is closing the gap against Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA), according to a poll released on Thursday.
The most recent Emerson College/The Hill poll found Casey is leading McCormick by 48 to 44 percent, with eight percent undecided.
Casey’s lead against McCormick has dropped two points from his six-percent lead in the June Emerson College/The Hill survey.
ABC27 reported:
Unchanged from recent polling, the economy is the top issue for Pennsylvanians. According to the latest survey, 50% of Pennsylvanians cite the economy as their top issue. Nine percent said threats to democracy were their top issue followed by 7% who said immigration.
Mark Harris, a strategist for McCormick’s Senate campaign to oust Casey this November, found that Kamala Harris and her backing of “San Francisco liberal policies is a toxic brand for Pennsylvania Democrats including weak Bob Casey.”

The strategist added that Kamala Harris’s image is “in a worse position among key groups in the election than Biden’s was.”

The McCormick memo detailed how Casey has supported Harris’s policies, including:
- Casey voted with Harris 98 percent of the time when she was in the Senate and 100 percent of the time when she served as vice president and president of the Senate.
- “Kamala Harris and Bob Casey hold radical positions on the border including eliminating ICE and decriminalizing border crossings.”
- “Kamala Harris and now Bob Casey support the most radical energy plan in American history.
Harris wants to ban fracking which would devastate the Pennsylvania economy.” - “Bob Casey and Kamala Harris oppose funding for police. She wants to give voting rights to convicts including the Boston marathon bomber, murderers, and people convicted of sexual assault. At the same time she supports mandatory gun confiscation policies aimed at legal gun owners.”
The McCormick memo stated, “In the days to come our campaign will release a raft of targeted digital, mail, and television advertising to drive home this message. All Pennsylvanians will be fully informed on the failure of the Biden-Harris-Casey agenda and will have a clear choice.”
