| Description | Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.) is entering her challenging primary election on Tuesday vowing to win or lose as a Democrat.
Facing a challenging primary against Arkansas Lt. Gov Bill Halter, Lincoln is hoping to avoid the fate of Utah Sen. Robert Bennett (R) and Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-W.Va.), both of whom were recently ousted by challenges from within their respective parties.
While Bennett is considering a write-in candidacy, Lincoln told The Hill she has no plans to to seek re-election as an independent candidate.
“Oh Lord, no. Never. I’m a Democrat. Win or lose, I’ll be a Democrat,” she said during an interview in her Senate office. |
