Local Republicans were hoping to get confirmation during Thursday night’s Bartholomew County Lincoln Day Dinner that Rep. Luke Messer would be running for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Democrat Joe Donnelly. Unfortunately for them, they’ll have to wait a little longer.
Addressing local Republicans, Messer says that Donnelly votes too often in the interests of the national Democratic Party.
Messer went on to say that comments made by Donnelly after his vote to confirm Gorsuch revealed where the Senator’s allegiance truly lies.
Messer thanked his family, and local Republicans, for their support throughout his political career.
