Pivotal Missouri Senate Race Starts
A key Senate race is beginning to take shape in Missouri.
Fox’s Jared Halpern has more from Capitol Hill:
Missouri’s Republican Attorney General Josh Hawley will run for Senate next year challenging Democrat Claire McCaskill.
McCaskill is one of 10 Senate Democrats running for re-election in a state won by President Trump last year.
Hawley is 37-years-old and serving his first year in elected office. In a video announcement, he says he did not plan on a Senate run, but believes we have to do all what we can to win a better future.
Missouri Democrats have expected Hawley to enter the race, for months accusing him of using the attorney general’s office as a political stepping stone.
