Marsha Blackburn

U.S. Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee is entering the governor’s race, confirming what has been expected in political circles for months.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Republican U.S. Sen. Marsha Blackburn has announced that she is entering the open Tennessee governor’s race in 2026. The second-term senator's announcement Wednesday sets up a primary clash with U.S. Rep. John Rose. Blackburn is a two-time statewide elected official and ally of President Donald Trump. She says she is running to ensure Tennessee is America's conservative leader.

Republican U.S. Sen. Marsha Blackburn won her reelection bid Tuesday, securing a victory in GOP-dominant Tennessee after largely avoiding her Democratic opponent.

A group of bipartisan U.S. senators introduced a bill Thursday that would require the Director of the Bureau of Prisons to be confirmed by the Senate.

Eleven senators and senators-elect said they would reject electors "from disputed states" without an investigation into the votes in those states. They did not provide evidence for their concerns.
