Watch Live: Fetterman and Oz debate, Tuesday 10/25 8pm EST (democratic, supporters, officials)

[erieguy]

Local news network broadcaster said Fetterman “went down in flames”, “doesn’t appear he can handle the job”, and with only a 2% lead doesn’t look like he’s going to prevail. Quite interesting as Fetterman is a yinzer, Pittsburgh is a Dem/Lib city, and there was no support for him.

The first word out of his mouth was 'Goodnight'?

Hopefully they didn't vote for Fetterman. He was having big issues well before this debate and probably well before his stroke.

Mostly not terrible. But there was one time where Oz literally answered her question twice and then she said 'You didn't answer the question'. Can't recall the topic but he clearly HAD answered the question.

I've never seen a Senate race flip in real time before, but that's what just happened.

I also scampered over to reddit to read the 1.5K comments from the Marxist children that pollute that site. Even they recognize that Fetterman is finished after this debacle.

Exactly. This is why early voting should not be allowed. You vote before you get to see what you just voted for.

Fetterman will likely win this race, but if you only allowed people to vote only AFTER the debate, OZ would likely have won in a landslide.

Facts matter. Why not let people have ALL the facts BEFORE they can vote?

Except Fetterman may have already won PRIOR to the debate due to so many people voting early, before they could see exactly what they voted for.

It's not as if only Fetterman will be able to read the questions of the moderator and the answers he and Oz provide in real time as they are spoken. OZ will be able to see and read everything exactly as Fetterman does and at the same time.

But that's not the usual way in a debate, is it? So it was done specifically for Fetterman but Oz can read it as well. Oz didn't need to.

After the fact, I thought the handling of the debate was very fair. And the moderators, especially the woman, were very good. She maintained control over the entire thing.
