The last time Republicans hoped to win a Senate seat in Pennsylvania, they suffered a devastating loss with the TV doctor Mehmet Öz, whom Democrats painted as an out-of-state mega-millionaire from New Jersey. This time around, the GOP is hoping for a better outcome with Dave McCormick, a Gulf War veteran turned hedge fund CEO.
There’s only one problem: McCormick also faces attacks for being an out-of-state mega-millionaire.
For months, Democrats have hit McCormick over reports that he actually lives in an oceanside mansion in Westport, Connecticut.
