Alison Lundergan Grimes said this week she intends to fight Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., if he chooses to run for Senate re-election and the White House at the same time in 2016.
Grimes’ remarks to WHAS-TV in Louisville are her first since her 15-point defeat to Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., in November’s midterm elections. Grimes is Kentucky’s secretary of state and chief elections officer and said despite the projected push-back by the state GOP, she will fight Paul. Kentucky law prohibits candidates from running for two offices at the same time.
