Val Demings Will Run for Senate

May 18, 2021 · 8:29 am ET · Leave a Comment

Rep. Val Demings (D-FL) plans to run for U.S. Senate against Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) in 2022, CNN reports.

Politico: “For months, Demings mulled which statewide office to pursue, but decided she could do the most good by taking on the two-term senator.”

This race will be epic, though Demings will have to get past Rep. Stephanie Murphy in the Democratic primary first.
