State Rep. Joe Carr will challenge Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander in next year’s Republican primary. He announced his campaign on Tuesday in front of a banner that misspelled the word “Senate.”
His campaign released the “Carr for US Sentate” image, then fixed the spelling.
In an interview with WTN-FM radio, Carr said he decided to mount a Tea Party challenge for the Republican nomination because he considers Sen. Alexander “the most liberal member of the delegation from Tennessee.”
