The Pennsylvania state government confirmed Wednesday that a fiercely contested Republican Senate primary will head to a recount — with Dr. Mehmet Oz clinging to a 902-vote lead over businessman David McCormick.Acting secretary of state Leigh Chapman said in a statement that state law requires an automatic recount because the top candidates are separated by less than .5 percentage points.“Counties may begin their recount as early as Friday but must begin no later than June 1,” Chapman said. “They must complete the recount by noon on June 7, and they must submit the recount results to the Department of State by noon on June 8.”
