Spotted: Plane Flies Over Pittsburgh with Banner Reading: “YouCan’tTrustDaveMcCormick.com”

PENNSYLVANIA — With today marking the Pennsylvania primary election for U.S. Senate, the Pennsylvania Democratic Party is highlighting its website exposing Dave McCormick’s record of prioritizing China over American workers, supporting a ban on abortion with no exceptions for rape or incest, and lying about where he lives. 

The site also highlights the recent New York Times report exposing David McCormick for giving “a misleading impression about key aspects of his background.”

Pennsylvania Democratic Party spokesperson TaNisha Cameron issued the following statement:

“David McCormick has a long record of trying to hide his disqualifying history. He is trying to run away from his record of investing and prioritizing China, the fact that he flies back to his home state of Connecticut after campaign events, and his dangerous anti-choice agenda. McCormick knows his record is a non-starter for Pennsylvania.”
