Warren announces shes running for re-election

Source: The Boston Globe

“I am running for re-election in Massachusetts in 2018,” she wrote in an email to her network of supporters.

She began the note saying that “nobody expected 2017 to start this way,” and that “this isn’t the fight we were expecting to fight.”

for a liberal state, she only won like 53-47 over Scott Brown. hopefully, she can increase her margin now that she's the incumbent.
