Seeking to capitalize on the media attention received this year after nearly being expelled from the Tennessee House of Representatives as a member of the “Tennessee Three,” Democrat state Rep. Gloria Johnson launched her campaign for the U.S. Senate on Tuesday, Sept. 5.

Ms. Johnson kicked off her campaign with an official launch in Nashville on Tuesday afternoon, following a smaller announcement in her hometown of Knoxville, ending months of speculation on whether she would run.
