The Cook Political Report shifted the open Pennsylvania Senate race from "toss up" to "lean Democrat" in the nonpartisan prognosticator's latest ratings published on Thursday.

Why it matters: The new ratings reflect Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman's (D) edge over Republican rival Mehmet Oz in the hotly contested Senate race.

How is this race possibly just lean Dem with an abhorent GOP candidate???

https://www.thedailybeast.com/video-shows-dr-oz-saying-he-has-two-houses-he-actually-has-10
At a campaign stop last weekend at the Carbon County Fair in Palmerton, Pennsylvania, a Democratic campaign operative asked Oz how many houses he owns.

Oz’s answer? “Legitimately, I own two houses,” he said, according to footage filmed by the operative and obtained by The Daily Beast.

“But one of them we're building on, the other ones I rent,” Oz added.

The problem with that answer is Oz—legitimately—owns far more than two houses.

In fact, according to public records, Dr. Oz owns 10 properties:

• a 9,000-square-foot mansion in New Jersey

• a 7,000-square-foot country house in Pennsylvania

• a condo in New Jersey

• a piece of residential real estate in Sariyer, Turkey

• another piece of residential real estate in Sariyer, Turkey

• a Manhattan condo

• another Manhattan condo

• an oceanside mansion in Palm Beach, Florida

• a cattle farm in Okeechobee, Florida

• and a piece of residential property in Konya, Turkey, which appears to be used as a student dormitory
Oz’s wife, Lisa, also owns a mansion in Maine with her family and a pool house next to Oz’s New Jersey mansion.

While Oz does rent out some of these properties—at times sharing them with questionable tenants—he is not renting them from others. He owns them, legally and legitimately, and they make up a sizable portion of his assets, which total at least $100 million.

They also moved the whole Senate from Lean R to Tossup.

Bill Nelson managed to lose to this guy?

Bill Nelson didn't campaign. He was just MIA through the whole campaign. Rick Scott actually ran a really energetic campaign. I hate him, I HATE him, but he actually seemed to want the job - while Nelson seemed to want a nap.

I will never stop being angry that Nelson didn't either campaign or let someone else try to run that time.

We came so close, too. Scott won by just 10,000 votes: https://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/florida-senate

Guess Nelson was told his election was a shie in and he didn’t have to campaign

No. I think he was pretty old by that time (like 75 years old) . Most people in their mid 70s are thinking about assisted living facilities not running a highly competitive Senate race. Democrats need to build their bench so all these septuagenarians/octagenerians don’t keep running.
