Winners & losers: Robert Casey
November 8
The biggest upset on the Senate side is the defeat of Rick Santorum, the third-ranking Republican in the Senate, in Pennsylvania at the hands of Democratic candidate and former state treasurer Robert Casey Jr.
Santorum, who had a strong backing among some pro-Israel activists, lost most of the Jewish vote in Pennsylvania, according to exit polls.
According to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, However, Casey drew even greater Jewish backing, and one exit poll suggested he garnered more than 80 per cent of the Jewish vote.
