The Senate majority leader kicked off his bid for a seventh term on Wednesday.
By Felicia Sonmez Felicia Sonmez National reporter on The Washington Post's breaking political news team Email Bio Follow April 17 at 10:58 AM Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday kicked off his 2020 reelection bid with a video highlighting his successful effort to block President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Merrick Garland — a move that helped reshape the court and over which Democrats are still fuming.
McConnell, 77, is running for a seventh term. He has previously described his 2016 move to block Garland — and the subsequent confirmation of Neil M. Gorsuch after President Trump took office — as one of his proudest moments.
