NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — By this time next week, we may know, who is the Republican nominee to be one of our U.S. Senators from Tennessee. That person will replace long- time GOP incumbent Lamar Alexander who is retiring. It’s a race that had been conducted in relative anonymity for most of this year. However down the stretch the two major Republican candidates have been lambasting each other with attack ads over who is the true conservative. Even the staff of both campaigns have gotten into the attack act, while outside PAC groups have chimed in as well. This week POLITICO labeled the race: “THE NASTIEST GOP PRIMARY IN THE COUNTRY.” One of those seeking to go to Washington is Dr. Manny Sethi. We’ve asked both candidates to be on INSIDE POLITICS.
The campaign of Former Ambassador Bill Hagerty has not worked out a time for him to join us.
