Thune Looks to Move Up In Senate Leadership

· Leave a Comment

Sen. John Thune (R-SD) “passed on a run for the No. 2 GOP leadership job in 2012. He’s unlikely to do so again this fall,” Politico reports.

“With Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn (R-TX) term-limited out, the South Dakota senator has all but locked up the whip job ahead of the biggest Senate Republican leadership shakeup in years.”

Same Election. Different Stories.

Election Day brings a flood of political news — and which sources you follow can shape the story you see.

That's why I appreciate what Ground News does. It shows how the same story is covered across the political spectrum — and highlights important stories that one side may be ignoring entirely.

And when the votes are counted and everyone starts debating what they mean, it's a useful way to get a broader view.
