Senator Mitch McConnell announced today he will not seek re-election next year.
Ding dong, the Mitch is retiring!
This immediately makes Kentucky a top target for conservatives in the upcoming midterm elections.
Kentucky is a deep red state. In fact, President Donald Trump just carried it by 30 points against Kamala Harris last November!
In this race, the Republican nominee is almost certainly going to win the general election next November. That makes the Republican primary one of the most important elections of 2026.
The media will call this election a “likely hold” for the GOP. But for conservatives, this is as much of a pickup opportunity as any Democrat-held seat. Replacing Mitch with a real conservative is like winning two seats in one.
Remember, McConnell is one of the primary reasons the Senate Conservatives Fund was created. His betrayal of the Republican voters held back the GOP and hurt the country for years.
McConnell’s vision of elite RINO politics is what SCF, grassroots conservatives, and Donald Trump have been fighting against for so long.
The race to replace McConnell should be a referendum on his failed leadership. Kentuckians deserve a patriotic warrior, which is a long overdue contrast to the senior senator from the Swamp.
Please support SCF today and help us finish what we started over ten years ago.
You can bet Mitch’s corporate money machine is already trying to hand-pick his successor. But this election will be Republican voters’ to decide.
Good conservatives are already looking at this race, and SCF will work to identify and support the best candidate.
This is a big day for conservatives and a huge opportunity for America.
