More than half of Pennsylvania voters in a new poll want Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) to leave the Democratic Party.
Fetterman's approval rating, at 48 percent, was above water in Quinnipiac University data. But 52 percent of respondents said they'd like to see him depart the party amid speculation that Republicans have been wooing the famously centrist Democrat.
The share of voters who want him to switch sides includes 57 percent of Democrats, 55 percent of Republicans and 46 percent of independents.
"The Democrats would like to show him the door. The Republicans seem to be welcoming him in. Thus is the political irony of Senator John Fetterman," Quinnipiac University polling ****** yst Tim Malloy said in a release.
Since winning the Senate seat long held by Republican Sen. Pat Toomey (Pa.) back in 2022, Fetterman has often voted with Republicans on Capitol Hill and has been critical of his party at points.
