WASHINGTON (TNND) — Pennsylvania Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean said during an interview that she is considering running against Sen. John Fetterman in 2028.
“I’m going to be considering it,” she said during an interview with the Politico news outlet. “I have been concerned about, really, two things, which is his family and his health and am very disappointed in his activity as a senator and in his votes.”
She said she is still thinking about it and would have to discuss it with her family.
Dean ran against Fetterman in 2018 when they ran against each other in the Democratic primary to become lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania.
Dean is not the only elected official considering running against Fetterman in a primary. Pennsylvania Rep. Chris Deluzio has also said he was considering a run against Fetterman.
“If I’m going to do it, I’m doing it to win, and I’m going to win,” Deluzio said last month.
Nearly two-thirds of Pennsylvania Democrats told The New York Times in August they had a negative opinion of Fetterman.
There have been some reports of Fetterman potentially flipping parties and becoming a Republican, but he has denied all of those reports.
Fetterman has sided with the GOP on some matters like support for Israel, but has said in the past he would make a bad Republican.
