John Fetterman according to Lambs' own internal Poll showed that Fetterman was the better candidate for the General as well as beating Lamb by 30 points currently in the primary.
"On paper, Democratic Rep. Conor Lamb appears lab-engineered to win in a purple state.
"A retired Marine who prosecuted sexual misconduct cases as an attorney, Lamb has spent two terms terms in Congress establishing a reputation as a moderate Democrat who found a way to win races in Trump Countryincluding in a House district that favored Republicans by double digits.
But six months after his August announcement, Lambs Senate bid in Pennsylvania is not going according to plan.
Lagging in the polls and falling behind in fundraising, Lamb was left off a list of local politicians who assembled to greet President Joe Biden when he visited Philadelphia earlier this month.
To make matters worse, a poll recently commissioned by Lambs own super PAC showed his main Democratic opponentJohn Fettermannot just beating him in a primary where the more liberal candidate often has more traction; polling showed Fetterman as the better candidate in a general election, against potential GOP nominees like Dr. Mehmet Oz.
And Lambs super PAC didnt just see Fetterman with a small edge. What it saw, according to Politico, was Lamb trailing Fetterman by 30 points. Barring a miraculous turn of events, that kind of lead would almost be insurmountable.
