Internal Poll Shows Fetterman Tanking with Democrats
- An internal Democratic poll in early 2025 shows Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman losing popularity among Democratic voters in Pittsburgh and Allegheny County.
- This decline follows renewed questions about Fetterman's mental health, highlighted by a May 2 New York Magazine feature reporting distressing behavior during his mental health crisis.
- The feature recounts an outburst at a teachers union meeting and testimonies describing conspiratorial thinking, reckless driving, and staff concerns about a toxic work environment.
- The poll found 49% of Democrats in Pittsburgh view Fetterman unfavorably, with 74% of progressive Democrats registering unfavorable opinions, while Fetterman dismissed the report as a 'one-source hit piece.'
- This situation has eroded Fetterman's support within the party, prompting discussions of a primary challenge and reflecting broader internal divisions among Pennsylvania Democrats.
