On the same day Pennsylvania counties can begin recounting ballots in the GOP U.S. Senate primary, on May 27 Dr. Mehmet Oz released a video declaring himself “the presumptive Republican nominee.”

“I am blessed to have earned the presumptive Republican nomination for the United States Senate,” Oz said in the video. “This was a tough campaign, I traveled everywhere. You guys were pretty honest sharing with me thoughts, worries you had; you don’t feel like you’re being heard.”
