WITH NO DEMOCRATS IN SIGHT, KENNEDY HITS THE ROAD
Senate hopeful Kennedy hitting campaign trail
Republican Congressman Mark Kennedy is getting a jump on other U.S. Senate candidates with a statewide tour this week.
Kennedy announced earlier this month he would seek the seat now held by Democrat Mark Dayton, who is retiring after one term. Today, he'll be in southern Minnesota for the first leg of a 21-city tour over the next five days.
Kennedy says he wants to spend time in all corners of the state as he introduces himself to voters.
Kennedy was recently elected to a third term in the U.S. House representing Minnesota's Sixth Congressional District.
He could face a challenge for the GOP nomination from colleague Gil Gutknecht and former Senator Rod Grams. No Democrats have formally announced a campaign. Source: Associated Press, February 21, 2005
