Joe Kennedy Says He's Considering Senate Run
Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-Mass.) said in a Facebook post on Monday that he's considering a run for Senate in Massachusetts, a decision that could set up a Democratic primary against Sen. Ed Markey (Mass.).
"Over the past few weeks I've begun to consider a run for the U.S. Senate. This isn't a decision I'm approaching lightly and -- to be completely candid -- I wasn't expecting to share my thoughts so soon," Kennedy said in a post to supporters.
Kennedy filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Monday, allowing him to raise for a Senate bid.
Markey is up for reelection in 2020, and speculation that Kennedy could challenge his fellow Democrat has been mounting.
