Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania indicated to Politico that she's thinking about potentially mounting a bid for U.S. Senate.
Rep. Madeleine Dean, D-Pa., is reportedly mulling a U.S. Senate bid, a move which could mean challenging Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., who would need to seek re-election in 2028 if he wants to pursue a 2nd term.
"I’m going to be considering it," Dean said in an interview with Politico published Tuesday.
Dean expressed disappointment with Fetterman's performance as a senator.

"To me, that was a very sad stunt, that he would stand there aligning himself with the most corrupt president of our lifetime, if not the most corrupt president in history. I have said I hope John comes back to the Democratic fold," she said.
