The Pennsylvania Senate race between incumbent Bob Casey, left, and his Republican challenger, Dave McCormick, is headed for a recount. All counties must complete their recounts by Tuesday, Nov. 26. Pennsylvania's Senate race is going to a mandatory recount despite the Associated Press calling it last week for Republican challenger Dave McCormick.

Pennsylvania’s Senator-elect Dave McCormick (R) says he will attend the Senate’s orientation this week after not initially receiving an invitation. “Looking forward to joining the Senate freshman class of 2025 for orientation this week!

Schumer’s decision to exclude McCormick from orientation stands in contrast to House custom, in which both candidates attend if the race has not been decided. Schumer has apparently not invited Ruben Gallego, the Democrat leading in Arizona’s uncalled Senate race, either.
