BRADDOCK, Pa. — Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, the leading candidate in Tuesday’s Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate, receives a pacemaker after suffering a stroke last week.

His campaign said on Tuesday that Fetterman was “about to undergo a standard procedure” to get a pacemaker with a defibrillator. Campaign officials say the pacemaker will “protect her heart and treat the underlying cause of her stroke.”

Fetterman said his stroke was caused by atrial fibrillation, a potentially serious but treatable type of irregular heartbeat.

The stroke landed him in hospital in the final days of the campaign. The 52-year-old says he is expected to make a full recovery.

Fetterman faces three other candidates in the race for the Democratic nomination for the open Pennsylvania Senate seat. Republican Senator Pat Toomey is retiring.
