U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton announced he will challenge Sen. Edward Markey for the Democratic nomination in next year’s Senate race for Massachusetts.
“With everything we learned last election, I just don’t believe Senator Markey should be running for another six-year term at 80 years old,” Moulton said in his announcement video posted on X on Oct. 15.
Moulton, 46, highlighted previous age concerns in the Democratic party, alluding to the 2024 presidential election, when concerns about President Joe Biden’s age and fitness for office led to his exit from the race against then-former President Donald Trump.
