Mitch Daniels pondering Senate bid, but says no to governor ‘rerun’
‘I am giving it a serious look,’ Mitch Daniels says about a potential run for U.S. Senate as time ends as Purdue president.
Mitch Daniels, a week after his 10-year run as Purdue president ended, said Saturday that he’s ruled out another run for Indiana governor, saying he couldn’t talk himself into going for a third term amid an already crowded field of Republicans.
But Daniels told the Based in Lafayette reporting project that he’s listening to suggestions he should run for the U.S. Senate seat expected to open as Republican Sen. Mike Braun runs for Indiana governor in 2024.
Daniels said Saturday he’s seriously considering it.
