Mehmet Oz believes that Pennsylvania, the state he is running to represent in the United States Senate, is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean.
“This is important: We do not have a Republican senator north of North Carolina on the Atlantic coast until you get to Maine, if I don’t hold this seat,” Oz told Sean Hannity. “And there’s been a Republican senator in Pennsylvania most of my life. I’m going to keep one here as well.”

Unlike its neighboring states of Delaware or New Jersey, where Oz lived for years, Pennsylvania is not on the Atlantic coast.
Oz has been frequently accused by his Democratic opponent, Lt. Gov. John Fetterman of being a carpetbagger from New Jersey with no real connections to Pennsylvania.
